What the critics say
94 WAWine Advocate, Pierre Rovani, 28-10-2000
Having a cellar full of 1988 red Burgundies to serve as a constant reminder of why I do not like this hard, tannic vintage, readers can imagine my surprise when I tasted Lignier's outstanding 1988 Clos de la Roche. While most of its counterparts from the Cote d'Or's top producers are drying out, Lignier's '88 has loads of fruit to cope with its firm, tannic backbone. It reveals mouth-watering cedar, tobacco, candle wax, and blackberry aromas. On the palate, this medium-to-full-bodied wine has superb depth to its black cherry and spice cake-flavored character. While it does have copious quantities of firm tannins, its finish remains long, ripe, and sweet. Anticipated maturity: now-2005.
Drink 2000 to 2005
91 VMVinous, Neal Martin, 01-02-2022
The 1988 Clos de la Roche Grand Cru has an engaging earthy bouquet. The wine is a little funkier than I would like, but calming down and developing attractive cedar and dark chocolate notes. The palate is dominated by dark berry fruit, firm tannins, touches of stewed black tea and spicebox. It just falls towards the finish that requires a little more grip and depth, but otherwise this is drinking well.
Drink 2021 to 2030
