Dujac Clos de la Roche 2000 1x75cl

Great Burgundy Grand Cru in perfect drinking window

In contrast to the good, but not exceptional showing of the 2001 Clos de la Roche, the 2000 was absolutely singing at our vertical tasting and really showed how beautifully this wine has developed with the passing years. The bouquet is deep, focused and beautifully complex, wafting from the glass in a blend of red and black cherries, roasted game, forest floor, a touch of cinnamon, marvelous soil tones and a very suave and understated base of vanillin oak. On the palate the wine is pure, full-bodied, complex and shows marvelous mid-palate depth, with a velvety palate impression, superb complexity, melting tannins and really impressive length and grip on the very classy finish. This is a really a beautiful 2000 red Burgundy and one of the best vintages of this bottling for current drinking. Drink between 2016-2030.  94JG
