Hubert Lignier, Clos de la Roche Grand Cru, 2022 (1.5L)
Clos de la Roche is the crown jewel of Morey-Saint-Denis—powerful, layered, and structured for the long haul. In the hands of Hubert Lignier, one of Burgundy’s most respected traditionalists, it becomes a wine of remarkable clarity and depth. Old vines, minimal intervention, and meticulous élevage are hallmarks of his style, and in 2022, they all come together in thrilling harmony.
This wine is dark-fruited and brooding in its youth—black cherry, plum skin, violets, and a deep core of crushed rock and spice. The tannins are firm but fine, and the balance is dialed in even at this early stage. There’s power, yes, but also incredible precision and poise.
In magnum, this already-grand wine is given even more room to evolve slowly and gracefully. It’s a cellar centerpiece, built for decades of aging—and a must-have for collectors of serious, age-worthy Burgundy.
