Domaine Lignier Michelot Clos de la Roche Grand Cru 2015, 750ml

Clos de la Roche from just below Ponsot’s Monts Luisants section. This plots, which cover around 70 ares, are located in the Genavrieres and Monts Luisants climates. These Pinot Noir vines are 45 years old. Vinified with 80% whole clusters.

Tasting Note:

It has a very pure and powerful bouquet with layers of small dark cherries, blueberry and violet aromas, and a little richness of the growing season showing through via a touch of glycerin. The palate is medium-bodied. This dovetails into a structured mid-palate with a pinch of white pepper lingering on the finish.
