Lot #70. Georges Roumier Morey-Saint-Denis Clos de la Bussière 2005

Description: Consists of 1 Bottle, 0.75L
Score: 93 JG.
"The bouquet is deep, beautiful and bottomless, as it offers up a sappy mélange of black cherries, plums, slightly roasted fruit elements as well, dark chocolate, fresh herbs, spice tones and a superb base of soil. On the palate the wine is full-bodied, sappy and closing down considerably for hibernation, with a rock solid core of pure fruit, ripe, but firm and substantial tannins, lovely acids, impeccable focus and superb length and grip on the still very primary, palate-staining finish. This will probably be one of the greatest vintages of Clos de la Bussière ever made under the Roumiers’ ownership, but it will need a fair bit of cellaring." John Gilman, View From the Cellar #15, Jun 2008
Provenance: The Nantais Cellar
Lot Location: Orange County
Estimate: $225
