Domaine Clusel-Roch 1999 Red (Côte Rôtie)

According to Brigitte Roch, this was an exceptional year for the domaine. With such huge concentration, heavy black tannins, fine acidity and hugely ripe fruit, it is hard to disagree. This wine, made using an old-fashioned hand-operated basket press, is full of power, yet has an astonishing elegance. — R.V. (6/1/2002)

Domaine Clusel-Roch 2003 Viognier (Condrieu)

Price $52

From a small parcel of 12 acres of Condrieu on the steep slope of the Coteau de Chery, Gilbert Clusel and Brigitte Roch have made a beautifully crafted Condrieu, ripe and unctuous and with wood flavors from barrel fermentation and aging. Honey flavors dominate this delicious wine. — R.V. (2/1/2005)

Domaine Clusel-Roch 2002 Syrah (Côte Rôtie)

Price $52

Great ripe fruit is just beginning to show through this huge, dense wine. It’s big, and dark and, obviously still very young. But it is going to develop into a fine, solid dark wine which will age over many years. Buy now, start to enjoy in 5 years. — R.V. (2/1/2005)
