94-96 AG. "The 2010 Clos de la Roche is a marvelous, complete wine. A huge, extroverted bouquet leads to exuberant fruit. This is a decidedly flashy, exuberant wine bursting with energy. Layers of fruit blossom in all directions as the wine saturates every corner of the palate in stunning style. The textured, enveloping finish leaves a long, lasting impression well beyond this tasting . . . . I continue to be impressed with the wines Benjamin Leroux is making under his own label. Leroux sources fruit from a number of top vineyards in the region. The wines are made in a facility Leroux shares with Nicolas Rossignol in the center of town." Wine Advocate #199, Dec 2011 |
