Tasting notes
The 2019 Clos Saint-Denis Grand Cru is less immediate on the nose than the Clos de la Roche and takes time to unfurl, eventually revealing black fruit, wet loamy soil, mint and sage aromas. This is very complex. The palate is medium-bodied with a structured, serious opening. Very linear and very saline, this almost goes out of its way to avoid being enjoyable at this prenatal stage. Brutally backward, it will deserve serious cellaring.
