Olivier Bernstein Clos de la Roche 2009 is a Grand Cru red wine from Morey-Saint-Denis in the Côte de Nuits. This magnum is produced from Pinot Noir vines with an average age of 50 years, situated on thin limestone soils and aged in new French oak. The 2009 vintage in Burgundy was marked by an unseasonably warm spring, which contributed to the natural power and fruit intensity of the wine. Scents of violet, griotte cherry and clove emerge on the nose before ample, velvety tannins saturate the mouth.

Vinous
Good bright, full red. Medicinal dark cherry, licorice, flowers and brown spices on the lively nose. Shows the enticing sweetness of the year but with tangy freshness and terrific breadth to its black cherry, dark raspberry and bitter chocolate flavors. Very good inner-mouth energy gives this wine excellent definition. Finishes long and spicy, with broad, ripe tannins. Bernstein believes that the tannins will swallow the wine's torrefaction element with bottle aging.Stephen Tanzer1st March 2012
