2014 A. Rousseau Clos de la Roche 750ml

Located in New York

$899.00

SKU 133100 Categories ,
“The 2014 Clos de la Roche chez Rousseau was raised in ten percent new oak this year. The wine is stunning, offering up a great combination of complexity and purity in its bouquet of sappy red and black cherries, raw cocoa, woodsmoke, gamebird, a very classy base of soil, fresh thyme and a whisper of spicy oak. On the palate the wine is deep, pure, full-bodied and very, very transparent. The wine is absolutely loaded with fruit at the core and yet is completely soildriven on the backend, with suave tannins, bright acids and great focus and balance on the utterly seamless and complex finish. Again, have I ever tasted a better young vintage of Clos de la Roche from the domaine? 2024-2075.”

Reviews & Scores
The 2014 Clos de la Roche Grand Cru has a fragrant bouquet, coquettish at first, then opening with wet limestone, Morello and cassis scents; it is very defined and focused though not powerful. The palate is silky smooth on the entry, beautifully poised with pure red cherries infused with orange sorbet and captivating mineralilé on the finish. This is one of the best Clos de la Roche that I have tasted from Rousseau in recent years. - WA
