The 2022 Clos de la Roche Grand Cru is bold and commanding, yet already reveals flashes of elegance beneath its muscular frame. Aromas of black cherry, cassis, smoked tea, and crushed stone unfold with intensity, while the palate is dense and structured, showing firm tannins and a core of dark fruit, savory spice, and iron-rich minerality. This is a monumental wine, built for the cellar, and destined to reward patient collectors with decades of complexity and depth.

Georges Lignier holds one of the largest shares of vines in Clos de la Roche, the most powerful and structured of Morey-Saint-Denis’ Grand Crus. This vineyard, bordering the famed terroirs of Gevrey-Chambertin, is known for producing age-worthy wines that balance dark, brooding fruit with a firm mineral backbone. Lignier’s style emphasizes transparency and tradition—long élévage in large oak, minimal intervention, and a deep respect for the vineyard.
