The light to medium ruby-colored Clos de la Roche offers an earthy, mineral, and sweet berry fruit-scented nose. What follows is a wine of moderate constitution, undeniable elegance, and graceful Pinot fruit. Some hard tannin is noticeable in the finish, but it is not cause for concern. This wine should age gracefully for a decade or more, offering complex aromatics, and sweet, gamey Pinot fruit in a medium-bodied format.
While Domaine Dujac's 1993s possess some of the characteristic Jacques Seysses precociousness, they also contain plenty of structure and tannin. To my surprise, Seysses feels that the 1993 vintage is "one of his greatest, even better than 1990," which he now dismisses as "over-ripe" and "atypical."
