Clos de la Roche Grand Cru--Vintage 1999
Côte de Nuits. Domaine-bottled: H Lignier
Tasting note: The 1999 Clos de La Roche is the darkest of Lignier's offerings, verging on being dark ruby-colored. It exhibits a black cherry, blackberry, licorice, and violet-scented nose that leads to its explosive, immensely flavorful character. Medium to full-bodied and pure, this fresh, sweet wine is packed to the gills with cherries, raspberries, blueberries, and blackberries. Ample yet highly delineated, it has a magnificently long, fruit-filled finish. (94-96) points. Pierre Rovani, Wine Advocate #136, August 2001.
