Great wines often dwell in the land of contradictions, and this ’09 is no exception. Its fresh, juicy fruit gains the counterpoint of port-like low notes; its power is balanced with finesse; and its density throws into shadow its intense tannic bassline. Meticulously crafted from biodynamically cultivated old vines, the Clos du Roi is a giant of a Burgundy. It’s drinking to the end of the next decade, likely longer.
