Michel Magnien, Clos Roche other_regions_italy the ’14 Clos des EpeneauxThis is more complex if not quite as elegant with a densely fruited nose of red current and cherry, strong earth notes and a hint of the vegetal that slide into rich, supple and relatively round, even generous medium plus weight flavors where the supporting structural elements are quite tight but well integrated. Very good if not great. (90 92) 2016+
