Clos Saint Denis, Domaine Dujac 2006

The superlatives don't stop with the Clos de la Roche as the nose here is quite simply spectacular with an incredibly complex and kaleidoscopic array of mostly black fruit and floral aromas, particularly violet and rose petal nuanced with anise that slides gracefully into the full, sweet and equally mouth coating flavors that drench the palate in sève on the less powerful but notably finer finish that seems to go on and on without end. The Clos de la Roche and Clos St. Denis are qualitative twins and it's a tough choice between the power and weight of the former versus the purity, refinement and depth of the latter.
