There are so many captivating wines in this tasting, but the 2015 Clos de la Roche seems to just have a little something extra. Ethereal, delicate and nuanced, especially in this context of much richer wines, the Clos de la Roche makes its case more with persistence and nuance rather than pure power. The bright red stone fruit, mineral and floral notes are all sketched with crystalline precision in a hauntingly beautiful Burgundy that hits all the right notes. I can only hope I will have a chance to taste the 2015 when it has had a few years (or more) in bottle.

In contrast to the expressive of many wines in the range this is restrained to the point of requiring aggressive swirling to coax the overtly spice and markedly earthy aromas of black cherry, plum and violets to reveal themselves. There is superb volume, power and mid-palate concentration supporting the extract-rich big-bodied flavors that possess evident muscle and punch on the mouth coating and stunning persistent finale. This is also very firmly structured; indeed it´s borderline chewy today and this too qualifies for inclusion in the ´forget you own it´ category.

Like the Clos de Vougeot, the 2015 Clos de la Roche Grand Cru from Domaine Leroy is built for the ages, opening in the glass with a bouquet of red-black berries, cherries, wood smoke, pencil shavings and incipient suggestions of soil. On the palate, the wine is full-bodied and firm, with an ample and assertive chassis of chalky tannins, formidable power and concentration, with a long, grippy finish. This is cut from very different cloth than the Musigny that preceded it in our tasting, but it is taut rather than hard: the only missing ingredient is time.
