Unfurling in the glass with aromas of sweet berry fruit, dark chocolate, rose petals, orange rind, burning embers and spices, the 2018 Clos de la Roche Grand Cru is full-bodied, layered and muscular, with a deep, concentrated and multidimensional core that's framed by rich, powdery tannins and impressively lively acids. This is a dramatic wine that hasn't yet shut down, but I wouldn't plan on opening bottles for at least a dozen years.

They have 1.95 ha here (4.8 acres). Five blocks from Mont Luisants across to Les Chabiots, average age 50 years. Barrel sample.
A light note of smoky reduction. Ripe and dark. Sweet and sour. Intense and not yet integrated. Some baking spice and a touch of chocolate. Hard to judge this at the moment bit it certainly has massive fruit depth and richness and yet also a chalky mineral finish that pulls it in at the end. Embryonic but I think it will be a great wine.

The 2018 Clos de la Roche Grand Cru has a detailed bouquet with black cherry, veins of blue fruit and iris petal that unfurls with aeration. Real intensity here, becoming quite flamboyant in the glass. The palate is medium-bodied with saturated tannins, quite structured with fine grip, a bit chewy and solid but there is potential here - a long term Clos de la Roche that requires patience. Tasted blind at the Burgfest 2018 red tasting.
