The Patriarche Clos De La Roche Grand Cru is a magnificent expression of Pinot Noir from one of Burgundy’s most revered vineyards in the Côte de Nuits. This wine showcases exceptional power, structure, and aromatic complexity, promising remarkable longevity and development in the cellar.
Founded in 1780, Patriarche is one of the oldest and largest négociant houses in Bourgogne, with a rich history rooted in the heart of Beaune. The house is renowned for its extensive, historic cellars, the largest in the region, which house a vast collection of wines. As a prominent producer, Patriarche crafts a wide range of wines that consistently reflect the classic character of their respective appellations.
In the glass, the Patriarche Clos De La Roche Grand Cru reveals a deep ruby color, releasing an intense bouquet of black cherry, wild raspberry, and violet, with emerging notes of truffle and sous-bois. The palate is full-bodied and powerful, supported by a firm tannic structure and vibrant acidity that carries flavors of dark fruit and spice. It culminates in a long, persistent, and mineral-driven finish that speaks to its grand cru pedigree.
To fully appreciate its complexity, serve this wine at a temperature of 16-18°C (60-65°F). The Patriarche Clos De La Roche Grand Cru pairs beautifully with rich dishes such as roasted game birds, beef bourguignon, or aged, hard cheeses.
