2022 Domaine Amiot Clos de la Roche Grand Cru

Powerful yet fine, resolved with very pretty florals & fine ripe fruit. A kaleidoscope of beautiful flavours & nuances yet still so tight & inward. So lovely, tight yet sumptuous and silky yet present. -Jono Hersey, FWC Note: from 4 separate parcels that total .56 ha located in Monts Luisants, Fremières and Chabiots Here the wood treatment is no longer subtle though it's not so prominent as to overshadow the fresh aromas of black cherry, cassis and just crushed fennel. The sleek and caressing bigger-bodied flavors possess evident power and muscle while the intensity seems to build from the mid-palate to the impressively long, austere, built-to-age and quite serious finale. This is definitely a wine to buy and cellar as it's not likely to be especially approachable young. 91-94 Points Allen Meadows, The Burghound
