2017 Guyot Olivier Clos de la Roche

By billn on March 28, 2019

Bottled a month. Hmm, a nice, open, freshness here, just a little perfumed and saline. Depth of flavour, intensity, depth to the texture too. Both mineral and a little structural. Faint oak on the finish. Really lots to look forward to.

Understated aromas, flowers and fruit – seems quite composed. This is very interesting indeed with impressively intense flavours that are long-lasting…

Very forward aromas with a faint edge of reduction. This is a big mouthful of wine, rescued by a lovely, late-arriving wave of acidity – actually a very interesting wine.

Dark ripe fruits that are rather distinguished. Very fine tannin, this is mineral and very intense. In a vintage like 09 I think I’d take this ahead of the Clos St.Denis.

Ripe and aromatic. This is round in the mouth with nicely understated but balancing acidity. As Marsannay blanc goes, this has much to commend it.

Dark fruit aromas. For an 08 this is full and very round. Understated tannin with dark fruit and a long finish. Lots to like here.

Again aromas of dark fruit. More concentrated but the tannin that comes with it is less fine – yet this is far from rustic and delivers very good intensity – very tasty.

Dark fruit aromas. More obvious concentration after the ‘Charmes’. The tannin is relatively fine and has just a little grab to it. Long and very interesting.

Lovely dark fruit – this is both pretty and complex. Plenty of slightly grainy tannin and lovely aspects to the fruit that combine with mineral elements too. Very interesting.

Burgundy Report

is special because...

Although this site has to support itself, and its author, everything in these pages is eventually free to view. With 350-400 domaine visits and many blind tastings per year, you won’t find that level of coverage and openness elsewhere!

I don’t ‘score‘ but I do actually recommend which wines to buy from which estates – instead of hiding behind an anonymous 94/100 score – does that mean buy or not? We should be told!

The monthly reports for subscribers reverts to ‘free-access’ after a little more than two years, because the whole ethos of Burgundy is sharing – Burgundy Report too – in this case, sharing the passion…
