Of the six wines I tasted from Thomas Coquard, it was the 2013 Clos Saint Denis Grand Cru that was the standout wine. It has a showstopping bouquet that unfolds with each swirl of the glass: blackberry, violets, small red cherries and a touch of vanilla. The palate has a gentle grip that allows the fine tannins that are wrapped in velvety red and black fruit. This grand cru is all about the build and the way it fans out on the finish. There is palpable energy and animation within this Clos-Saint-Denis, with exquisite precision on the finish. Sublime.
