Power and poise—Clos de la Roche in its most sophisticated form.
Dujac’s 2016 Clos de la Roche is a masterclass in Grand Cru depth and refinement. Dark berry fruit, spice, and crushed violets unfold in layers, supported by fine-grained tannins and a long, mineral finish. A wine of energy and gravitas, built for long aging yet already showing remarkable balance.

Tasting Notes
Opens with lifted aromas of dark cherry, blackberry, crushed violets, and subtle forest floor, followed by layers of spice, mineral, and earthy nuance. The palate is powerful yet composed, with firm, elegant tannins and vibrant acidity driving a long, precise finish.
Pairings
Roasted duck breast with a cherry glaze, dry-aged lamb chops with rosemary, or wild mushroom risotto. Earthy flavors and umami-rich dishes highlight the wine’s complexity, while refined proteins let its structure and nuance shine.
Decant
For 2–3 hours if drinking now to allow the youthful structure and layered bouquet to open up.
Drinking Window
2026–2045. The wine is approachable with extended decanting now, but it will continue to gain complexity and harmony with further aging. Optimal maturity is expected from 2030 onward, offering peak expression of fruit, structure, and tertiary nuances.
