(3x75cl) 1996Vinous (96)
Dujac’s 1996 Clos de La Roche is served last, but its pedigree comes through loud and clear in seemingly endless aromas and flavors that dazzle. Savory herbs, rose petal and soft, supple fruit cress the palate in this gorgeous Burgundy. The 1996 is just entering the early part of its maturity. It should drink well for another decade or two. This is a magnificent showing from the Seysses family. 96Inc. VAT£7,683.14 -
Vinous (91+)
Deep red. Briary red berries, mocha, licorice, leather and smoky oak on the highly aromatic nose. Impressively thick and concentrated, but also conveys an impression of firm acidity. Intriguing cool menthol note along with sappy red berries. One senses the vineyard character here. Finishes firmly tannic but not dry. Very backward wine with a bright future.Inc. VAT£1,513.73 -
(1x75cl) 1999Vinous (98)
(the yield here was 45 hectoliters per hectare): Good full red. Knockout explosive nose combines raspberry, brown spices, underbrush, mustard seed and roast coffee. Very rich and sweet but with terrific energy and minerality lifting the wine's red fruit flavors. This grand cru is evolving at a snail's pace and seemed to grow even fresher as it opened in the glass. Finishes with firm but suave tannins and outstanding slowly rising length, with an unexpected piquant note of blood orange. This incredible Clos de la Roche is just approaching its peak. The most amazing thing of all: I tasted it from a 375-milliliter bottle.Inc. VAT£2,450.00 -
Vinous - Stephen Tanzer (90-93)
Good deep red. Redcurrant, mocha, minerals and cinnamon on the nose; smells more important than the Clos Saint-Denis. A step up in concentration and power, with considerably more stuffing than the last wine. Finishes persistent and ripe.Inc. VAT£1,636.80 -
(1x75cl) 2005Wine Advocate (96)
The Seysses’ 2005 Clos de la Roche charts new territory in this collection for sheer intensity. Black cherry, kirsch distillate, cedar, incense, iron filings, wet stone, and roasted meats and coffee represent a few of the immediate aromatic suggestions forced on this taster. In the mouth, it is similarly compelling, with an eruption of clear black cherry, cassis, and meat juices, faintly bitter notes of fruit skin and pungent herbal and mineral notes adding complexity. The texture is incipiently velvety, imposingly glossy, and a perfect cover for fine, abundant tannins. Spectacularly rich and reverberative in its multifaceted finish, this sensational wine deserves at least a decade of rest before re-opening.Inc. VAT£1,880.52 -
(3x150cl) 2008Wine Advocate (95)
The 2008 Clos de la Roche is particularly refined in this vintage. The wine literally floats on the palate with weightless elegance in its intensely perfumed fruit. Crushed flowers and red berries linger on the silky, impossibly fine finish. This is a fabulous effort from Dujac. Anticipated maturity: 2018-2033.Inc. VAT£5,764.84 -
Vinous (96+)
The 2010 Clos de La Roche from Dujac is an infant, but it is also fabulous. All of the signatures are there; soaring aromatics, finely sculpted fruit and vibrant, pulsating tannins. What a privilege it is to drink the 2010 over several hours at dinner. An intensely perfumed, multi-dimensional Burgundy, the 2010 captures all of the potential I have seen in previous tastings. Ideally, the 2010 should be cellared for at least a handful of years, as it is built for a long life that will go out for several decades. Readers who own the 2010 should be thrilled.Inc. VAT£1,170.80 -
Vinous (94+)
Healthy full red. Compelling soil-driven scents of raspberry, coffee, underbrush and smoky minerality. Wonderfully rich, smoky and deep but also with the vintage's sappy, floral lift to its raspberry and strawberry fruit flavors. Perhaps best today on the extremely long finish, where the tannins are refined but substantial and will still need considerable patience. A beauty in the making.Inc. VAT£660.12 -
Wine Advocate (96)
Domaine Dujac's 2015 Clos de la Roche Grand Cru is wonderful, one of the stars of the range this year, wafting from the glass with a kaleidoscopically complex bouquet of blackberry, cassis, cinnamon, dried rose, orange peel and pencil lead. On the palate, the wine is full-bodied, multidimensional and complete, with a deep core, fine-grained tannins and perfect balance, its finish long and sapid. While this is concentrated—even powerful—it is also beautifully elegant, avoiding the overt muscularity of which this grand cru is capable.Inc. VAT£2,610.00 -
(6x75cl) 2016Vinous (93-96)
(the estate made a full crop of 40 hectoliters per hectare, as there was no frost here): Full, dark red. Captivating aromas of raspberry, strawberry, spices, flowers and sweet new oak. Juicy, intense and aromatic on the palate--youthfully imploded in a positive way. Projects compelling energy and subtle sweetness to its red berry and spice flavors. Finishes very long and tight, with an exhilarating wild berry element. A knockout sharply delineated Clos de la Roche that offers terrific intensity without any sense of weight.Inc. VAT£5,112.72 -
(1x150cl) 2017Wine Advocate (94+)
Dujac's 2017 Clos de la Roche Grand Cru is more reserved that the Clos Saint-Denis, unwinding in the glass with scents of red berries, plums, orange rind, cinnamon, peonies and sweet soil tones. On the palate, the wine is medium to full-bodied, serious and layered, with muscular structure, lively acids and a long, perfumed finish. While this remains a comparatively accessible, finesse-driven Clos de la Roche, at least a decade's patience will be required to see this begin to realize its potential.Inc. VAT£2,233.21 -

They have 1.95 ha here (4.8 acres). Five blocks from Mont Luisants across to Les Chabiots, average age 50 years. Barrel sample. A light note of smoky reduction. Ripe and dark. Sweet and sour. Intense and not yet integrated. Some baking spice and a touch of chocolate. Hard to judge this at the moment bit it certainly has massive fruit depth and richness and yet also a chalky mineral finish that pulls it in at the end. Embryonic but I think it will be a great wine.Inc. VAT£697.32 -
Vinous (97-99)
The 2019 Clos de la Roche Grand Cru has a tightly wound bouquet with beautifully defined red fruit laced with Earl Grey, autumn leaves and a touch of white pepper. The palate is medium-bodied with supple tannins, demonstrating a little more girth and depth than the Clos Saint-Denis. It gently builds to a spicy and tensile finish, lingering peppery notes ensuring that you will not forget it in a hurry. Every vine that contributed fruit to this wine deserves a big shiny medal.Inc. VAT£2,531.16 -
(3x75cl) 2020Wine Advocate (96+)
Unwinding in the glass with aromas of cassis, dark berries and plums mingled with spices, sweet soils tones, vine smoke and petals, Dujac's 2020 Clos de la Roche Grand Cru is full-bodied, deep and concentrated, with a pure, vibrant core of fruit that's framed by powdery tannins and lively acids. Serious and structured, though it's far from austere, this will richly reward patience.Inc. VAT£2,058.62 -
(1x75cl) 2021Jasper Morris Inside Burgundy (96-98)
(5-Star Wine) Fractionally denser in colour than Clos St-Denis with a meatier bouquet, some blood orange as well as the traditional blueberry of this vineyard. A little white pepper comes up. This is brilliantly complete, no feeling of a lighter vintage, with superb grace at the finish. Ripe alpine strawberries. 76% whole bunches. Drink from 2030-2038.Inc. VAT£817.32 -

Bright medium red. Subdued aromas of redcurrant, cinnamon, pepper and sweet oak. Delicate and subtle in the mouth, but with sappy richness and very good verve. Finishes supple and long, with some oak tannins showing.Inc. VAT£8,349.49 -

(1x75cl) 2013Vinous (93-95)
The 2013 Echézeaux is one of the most open, expressive wines in the range today. Silky tannins and a pliant, resonant mid-palate convey an impression of suppleness that is unusual, even for Echézeaux. That theme continues through to a beautifully sculpted, generous finish.

(1x150cl) 2015Wine Advocate (94)
The excellent 2015 Echezeaux Grand Cru reveals a youthful bouquet of sweet red and black fruit, wood smoke, grilled squab and spice. On the palate, the wine is full-bodied, ample and expansive, cutting a broad swathe, its tannins fine-grained and its fruit juicy and succulent, more structurally open-knit than the domaine's grands crus from Morey and Chambolle.Inc. VAT£1,738.76 -
(3x150cl) 2018Vinous (93-95)
The 2018 Echézeaux Grand Cru had been racked the day prior to my visit. That said, the bouquet is very well defined, offering black cherries, raspberry, rosemary and pressed rose petal aromas that blossom with aeration. The palate is medium-bodied with quite firm tannins, good depth and precision, revealing bitter cherry and a touch of balsamic toward the finish. Very good potential.Inc. VAT£5,955.64 -
(1x75cl) 2020Vinous (93-95)
The 2020 Echézeaux Grand Cru has an endearing bouquet with predominantly red fruit, white pepper, a light ash-like bouquet that gains intensity with aeration. The palate is medium-bodied with grainy tannins, very saline, a little herbaceous with a stronly marine-influence towards the finish. I find the Beaux Monts has more finesse than this cuvée.Inc. VAT£768.25 -
(6x75cl) 2022Jasper Morris Inside Burgundy (94-96)
A fresh and vibrant purple. 100% whole cluster. A sort of brioche reduction. Then it really develops on the palate, with a lifted vibrant red fruit, mainly raspberry, still some tannins behind, though the fruit covers them very nicely. Medium persistence. I can see Jeremy’s 2002 comparison for this wine. Drink from 2032-2040.Inc. VAT£4,701.49 -

The variations among Burgundy's many appellations and the importance of individual winemakers philosophy's make vintage guides complex. Vintage advantages can also differ slightly for Pinot Noir and Chardonnay. Nonetheless we have put together a selection of some of our favourite vintages from Burgundy.
