🏰The 2021 Prieure Roch Vosne Romanee Clos Goillotte is a rare monopole vineyard in Vosne-Romanée, producing exceptionally low quantities of biodynamically farmed Pinot Noir with a unique 【"feminine" elegance and purity】. The 2021 Burgundy vintage was challenging due to unpredictable weather, yet this wine, from a domaine founded by Henri-Frédéric Roch (co-director of DRC), showcases meticulous care and minimal intervention. Once a private garden vineyard of the Prince of Conti, Clos Goillotte's old vines (around 45-50 years) yield less than 2,000 bottles per vintage, making it highly sought-after. The producer describes the 2021 as a "real gem" with "endless curves and exceptional delicacy."
👃 Expect a beautiful silky palate with mouthwatering acidity, and a more floral nose and elegant palate compared to other Roch wines, carrying a signature Roch aroma. Tasting notes reveal red fruit (dried strawberry, raspberry), earthy notes (truffle, leather), oaky nuances (nutmeg, oak), and spices (mint, anise, fennel). It offers an ultra-complex and concentrated profile while maintaining a light and elegant texture.
🍴 This exquisite red Burgundy is a perfect match for classic pairings like roast duck, goose, and other game birds. Its elegance and complexity also make it an ideal companion for mushroom-based dishes, truffle pasta, or delicate roasted poultry, where its nuanced flavors can truly shine.
🥂 As a highly sought-after and rare wine, this is perfect for collectors, special celebrations, or a sophisticated dinner party where a truly unique and expressive Burgundy is desired. Given its youth, it would benefit from some aeration or decanting to allow its complex aromas to fully unfold. Serve at a cool cellar temperature to best appreciate its delicate nuances.
