Description

2016 Clos de la Roche, Grand Cru, Domaine Dujac, BurgundyAs it was when I first reviewed it, the nose remains restrained if quite pretty with its blend of various red berries, herbal tea, spice and appealing floral and sandalwood wisps. There is fine intensity to the sleek and beautifully delineated flavours that possess evident power if only moderate density on the stony, nicely complex and impressively long finish. This remains backward and young as the supporting tannins, while ripe and firm, make it

Beychevelle have blended it perfectly with their 46% Cabernet Sauvignon and a touch of Cabernet Franc and Petit Verdot to make a truly harmonious wine

Violets and lavender give the bouquet a pretty sense of lift and intensity that reminds you of the cool climate and long growing season that characterizes this vintage

reuse your govino

still no more than middleweight but with the intensity of Grand Cru

before ageing over two winters in cask (80% new)

Bottled July 2016
