This wine is aged in the cask for sixteen to eighteen months, using a fairly low proportion of new casks finally being bottled with a very light filtration. 100% Pinot Noir it is displaying a fine dark colour with ruby reflections. The aromas of spices and cherries develop on the palate of this a silky structured red wine finishing with a mellow woodiness. Morey-Saint-Denis, nestling in its enclave between Gevrey-Chambertin and Chambolle-Musigny, produces no fewer than five Grands Crus. Forming the northern boundary of the commune, 'Clos de la Roche' takes its name from a rock used by the Celts for their rites. Adjoining 'Latricieres-Chambertin', Clos de la Roche produces Morey's most robust wines. The soil here is so pebbly and hard to work that it used to exhaust even the toughest growers. These hard brown pieces of limestone make for a very firm wine, but one with the best possible ageing potential. Today, 'Clos de la Roche' covers some 16 hectares. (6 x 75 cl)

Jean-Claude Boisset Pommard 1er Cru Clos de Verger
Description: Visual Aspect: A good, steady purple, with a few amber reflections. Nose: An attractive, complex, astonishing nose combining notes of fresh berry fruit with candied fruit notes. Palate: Good length, balanced between silky tannins and an evident fruitiness. Aging: This wine should be left in the cellar for 4-5 years to reveal its full potential, and may be aged for 15 years or more Location: valley. This yields two different types of wines: those from the hill on the Volnay side, and those born on the plunging slopes descending towards Beaune. The Clos de Verger is situated on the latter side, resting on a mix of clay and limestone. This ground provides the wine with a solid attack in the mouth, but also great elegance at the finish. Soil: Clay and limestone. Varietal : 100% Pinot Noir Winemaking: Whole grapes transferred by gravity into a vat. No yeasts, enzymes or tannins are added, to avoid altering the precious terroir. Maturation lasts 16-18 months in less than 20% new casks. Very light filtration. (6 x 75 cl)
