LIGNIER MICHELOT Clos de la Roche Grand cru 2023

Clos de la Roche Grand Cru Burgundy Red

€240,00 / 75cl inc. VAT

In this vibrant 2023 vintage, the Clos de la Roche Grand cru from domaine Lignier-Michelot displays superb directness, combining the sap of radiant fruit with invigorating energy. The palate, still very youthful, unfolds fine aromas of black cherry and sweet pepper over a particularly refined, silky texture. This purity of structure and its noble undergrowth nuances promise magnificent cellaring potential.

Vinous Tasting Note

The 2023 Clos de la Roche Grand Cru, which includes 80% whole bunch, has a beautifully defined bouquet that is more complex and terroir-expressive than the preceding Charmes-Chambertin. The palate is medium-bodied with a fleshy opening that disguises the insistent grip behind, a testament to Lignier-Michelot's more hands-off approach in extraction. It is refined, with lovely balance and a touch of allspice toward the finish. This is a worthy follow-up to his standout 2022. I would not be surprised if it ends up at the top of my banded score once in bottle.
