2013 Rousseau Clos de la Roche

Initially reticent on the nose, but opened up after about 2 hours of air. Red plums and a hint of forest floor with immediate large scale palate presence. Great purity of the sappy red fruits. This built in strength over a couple hours and was superb by the end of the night. Very long and pleasurable finish. This is the third bottle of this that I’ve had in the last couple years, but I think I’ll wait 3-5 for the next one.
