Clos de la Roche--Vintage 2000
Côte de Nuits. Domaine Leroy
Offered in a carton. Two bottle show slight signs of seepage
Tasting note: Subtle notes of cheese rinds are interspersed with sweet black cherries in the complex aromatics of the 2000 Clos de la Roche. An extracted, medium to full-bodied wine of exceptional concentration, it boasts copious quantities of stony black fruits, and a powerful, muscular character. Its firm yet astonishingly long finish reveals some stemmy, woody tannin, a characteristic which kept its score from being higher. Projected maturity: 2005-2012. maturity: 2005-2012.
Madame Lalou Bize-Leroy liked both the 2000 and 2001 vintages, stating that she was "rather pleased with the 2001s as they will bring lots of joy to those who drink them young" and that the 2000s "are candied fruit, reduction of fruit, the essence of fruit." 93 points, Robert
