Domaine Coquard Loison-Fleurot Clos de la Roche Grand Cru – Clos de la Roche Grand Cru – Red – 2016:

 

The Pinnacle of Burgundy: Clos de la Roche Grand Cru

The COQUARD LOISON FLEUROT CLOS DE LA ROCHE RED is more than just a wine-it’s a liquid masterpiece, representing the most profound expression of an exceptional terroir in the Côte de Nuits. This Grand Cru, often described as one of the most ‘masculine’ of Morey-Saint-Denis, embodies the structured power and aromatic finesse of Pinot Noir at its zenith. Crafted by a highly-regarded family estate, it is the result of meticulous viticulture and precise aging.

Tasting Notes

• Color: Deep, luminous garnet, developing brick-red hues with maturity.
• Nose: A complex and captivating bouquet opens with notes of black cherry, ripe raspberry, and dried rose, evolving into forest floor, truffle, and sweet spices (cinnamon, clove).
• Palate: Powerful on the attack, transitioning to a silky texture. The tannins are exceptionally fine, seamlessly integrated into a dense structure. The finish is monumentally long and persistent, signaling immense aging potential.

Pairing & Service

This wine demands a dish of equal stature. Serve at 61-63°F (16-17°C) after careful decanting, ideally after 10 to 15 years in the cellar. It will elevate the most refined cuisine.
