  What a special treat to enjoy my first Roumier at one of the most beautiful restaurants on the planet - a near future Grand Award winner in the making.
  
  In 1953, Georges Roumier acquired this clos in Morey-Saint-Denis, Clos de la Bussière. The 2019 Domaine Roumier Morey-Saint-Denis 1er Cru La Bussiere is an elegant rustic wine requiring a decade or more to showcase its Potentail. In this early stage it required a bit of coaxing to reveal itself from its tightly wound structure but when it did, it presented elements that forecast great things to come- predominately in the current, rhubarb, sour strawberry, raspberry and red current vein backed by flowers and a pleasant not over powering stemmy character wrapped tightly in its protective outer shell. With time the wall will recede and in its place will be a highly intellectual elegant beauty. 91+

  Most of my Roumier is tucked away until my kids are old enough to drink it with me -- but after tasting so many accessible 19's recently I figured I'd give this bottle a try tonight. Good idea, as it turns out -- this is showing great right now! Silky and rich, with really pretty & polished fruit. Elegant, deep and weighty, such a classy wine!

  How do I describe something so divine? The soft silkiness... The polish... It's voluptuous but lithe, sweet but savoury, powerful but meek... Absolutely remarkable and unforgettable. I am so very lucky. This is sheer beauty, sheer beauty.

  Deep red and black fruit. Thick on the palate. Much bigger than usual for this wine.

  Roumier Morey Saint Denis Clos de La Bussiere 2019.
  Ok, nå begynner det å bli sent her.
  Mye kvaliteter i denne, men er milevis unna å være drikkeklar.
  Det kan hende jeg påvirket verten biiiittelitt til å åpne denne - my bad.😅
