Very generous wood all but masks the spicy red currant-infused aromas that display background nuances of leather and underbrush. The rich, supple and surprisingly forward moderately sized flavors offer reasonably good depth while the finish immediately firms up and displays somewhat bothersome dryness that cuts the length short. This may well recover but it would be accurate to observe that the balance isn't ideal.

The 2017 Clos de la Roche Grand Cru has a straightforward, well-defined if not overly complex bouquet. There is a sense of airiness to this Grand Cru. The palate is medium-bodied with supple tannin, quite grippy in the mouth but tight and very linear toward the finish, just when you are yearning for it to fan out. As such, the persistence feels a tad short at the moment. Drink 2022-2038
