Situated between La Tâche and La Romanée-Conti, La Grande Rue produces iconic Pinot Noirs. Dried herbs, gentle spice and savoury notes fill the nose. On the palate, a wonderful vibrancy leads to a floral, textured finish.

The 2016 La Grande Rue Grand Cru has a very pure, almost pastille-like bouquet with copious red cherry fruit mixed with crushed strawberry and a little cassis. La Grande Rue? [Post script: Bingo!] The palate is very pretty with fine-grain tannin. This is surfeit with freshness and vitality, although it does not quite have the depth and structure of other Grand Crus from the appellation. It does fan out towards the finish. The persistence, and the saline aftertaste are very appealing. Excellent. Tasted blind at the 2016 Burgfest tasting. Neal Martin1st October 2019
