The 2022 Louis Jadot Clos de la Roche Grand Cru is a prestigious red Burgundy from one of Morey-Saint-Denis’ most revered Grand Cru vineyards. Clos de la Roche is renowned for producing Pinot Noir with depth, structure and exceptional ageing potential, and the 2022 vintage showcases these qualities with impressive precision. The nose is complex and expressive, revealing aromas of black cherry, wild raspberry and dark plum, layered with notes of violet, forest floor, spice and subtle oak.
On the palate, it is medium to full-bodied with remarkable concentration balanced by freshness and elegance. Flavours of ripe red and dark berries unfold across a finely textured palate, supported by silky tannins and vibrant acidity. Savoury nuances of earth, dried herbs and gentle spice add further complexity, while the wine's mineral character contributes focus and length. The finish is long, refined and persistent, reflecting the pedigree of this celebrated Grand Cru site.
Ben’s Recommendation: At Wine More Cellars, this is an exceptional Burgundy for collectors and Pinot Noir enthusiasts seeking a wine of both power and finesse. Its layered complexity makes it an excellent match for duck, roast lamb, game birds or mushroom-based dishes. Enjoy with careful decanting in its youth, or cellar confidently for 15–25 years as it develops additional depth and nuance.
