Unquestionably one of the finest wines produced in the vintage, the Lecheneaut brothers’ 2002 Clos de La Roche bursts from the glass with awesome aromas of anise, black fruits, licorice, and a myriad of spices. It is packed and stacked with fruit, powerful, generous, noble, perfectly harmonious, and balanced. Loads of sweet melted tannin can be discerned in its awe-inspiringly long finish. This profound effort is an essence of Clos de La Roche and stands as testimony to the magnificent work and decision making of Philippe and Vincent Lecheneaut. Projected maturity: 2008-2018. Bravo!
