Neal Martin
The 2016 Clos de la Roche Grand Cru is missing some intensity on the nose but it is endowed with pretty red berry fruit, briary and light sous-bois aromas. Perhaps just a little stem addition at play here? The palate is medium-bodied with gritty, quite firm tannin. The acidity is well judged and lends freshness, although unusually for this Grand Cru, I find the finish brittle in texture at the moment. Quite candied, more so with aeration. Give it another three or four years. Tasted blind at the 2016 Burgfest tasting. 91 points
