The dark ruby with amber-colored 1993 Clos de la Roche is a show-stopper. It has penetrating aromas of cassis, blackberry, stones, and wild herbs. On the palate, leather, boysenberries, assorted dark fruits, and a myriad of spices can be discerned in its complex and decadently fashioned personality. This 1993 unquestionably has the requisite power, richness, concentration, and density of fruit to stand up to its solid backbone. Anticipated maturity: 2005-2015.

A wine for the next century. Dense, thick and ripe, this intense grand cru displays a searing intensity of flavors and aromas. It blends nicely smoky, toasted oak and sweet fruit. Very youthful, closed and hard now. The firm tannins need until at least 2005 to soften.--Leroy vertical. 72 cases made.??–PM??Region: France / Burgundy / Clos de la Roche Select to Add
