"The Clos des Bouchères in 2016 chez Roulot has turned out very well indeed and will be prove to be one of the most elegant premier crus in the lineup this year. The bouquet is very refined in profile, delivering scents of pear, a touch of tangerine, fresh almond, chalky soil tones, bee pollen, vanillin oak and a floral topnote redolent of apple blossoms. On the palate the wine is deep, full-bodied, pure and youthful in personality, with a fine core, lovely cut and grip and a long, nascently complex and zesty finish. Fine, fine juice."
