Lamarche La Grande Rue Grand Cru Monopole 2002 is a sophisticated and highly prized wine from the prestigious Domaine Lamarche, located in Burgundy’s renowned Côte de Nuits. As a Grand Cru Monopole (exclusively owned by Domaine Lamarche), this wine offers a singular expression of the La Grande Rue vineyard, situated between the legendary vineyards of Romanée-Conti and La Tâche in Vosne-Romanée. The 2002 vintage has developed gracefully over the years, displaying a remarkable balance between power and finesse. In the glass, it presents a deep ruby color that speaks to its richness and maturity. Aromatically, the wine offers an intricate bouquet of red and black berries—raspberry, black cherry—combined with earthy, forest floor notes, hints of truffle, and a touch of spice and floral nuances like violet. As it continues to open, subtler notes of leather and tobacco emerge, adding layers of complexity. On the palate, the Lamarche La Grande Rue 2002 is full-bodied, with silky tannins and a beautifully balanced acidity that brings freshness and elegance to its powerful structure. Flavors of ripe fruit harmonize with a mineral core, reflective of the vineyard’s unique terroir. The finish is long, refined, and persistent, showcasing hints of spice and an almost savory depth that lingers gracefully.
