95/100 - Bichot buy the grapes from a single parcel in the Clos de la Roche to produce this wonderfully stylish expression of the Grand Cru. Aged in 35% new wood, it's intensely floral and refined, with youthful, vivid rose petal and wild strawberry scents and flavours, chalky minerality and the poise and definition you expect from such a great terroir. - Tim Atkin MW, Decanter

The 2018 Clos de la Roche Grand Cru shows a little more volatility on the nose compared to its peers, a little diffusive at the moment. There is an iodine aspect that develops in the glass. The palate is medium-bodied with supple tannins. Good depth and grip, sweet red fruit tinged with marmalade, though it lacks the grandeur and ambition of Lignier-Michelot's Clos de la Roche. Tasted blind at the Burgfest 2018 red tasting. - Neal Martin, Vinous  

96/100 - Black-cherry hints on the nose have an intriguing note of smoked meat, but that is all this wine gives away for now. The palate also shows cherry fruit, but it is fresher, caught amid a fine-boned, filigreed structure of almost fragile tannin that nonetheless holds firm. There is grace and grandeur in equal measure, centered around a core of pure fruit, framed in vivid freshness and concentration. - Anne Krebiehl MW, Wine Enthusiast 

 

The Grand Cru vineyard of Clos de La Roche is found in the village of Morey-Saint-Denis, the oft overlooked village sandwiched between Chambolle-Musigny and Gevrey-Chambertin. Displaying equivalent elegance and structure to its more famous neighbours, this wine is an excellent value Grand Cru.
