The nose opens with fresh red berries such as cherry and raspberry, layered with forest floor, delicate floral notes, and a touch of spice.\n\nThe palate is graceful and tightly woven, with fine, well-integrated tannins, vivid acidity, and a mineral backbone that gives the wine real definition. It already offers pleasure for those who enjoy mature, nuanced Burgundy, but it also has the structure and balance to develop beautifully over further cellaring.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eProduction\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003cbr\u003eClos de la Roche lies in Morey-Saint-Denis, where the vineyard’s stony soils and prime Grand Cru exposure help produce Pinot Noir with both concentration and tension.
