About

Ratings:

91+

"Aromas of mirabelle, soft citrus fruit and wild herbs. Juicy, dry and tight; leaner and less fruity than the Clos Saint-Jean, showing a strong smoky, stony minerality that I did not find in the 2011 version of this wine. Finishes broad and resounding, with a strong wet stone character. This will need time in bottle."

91 Allen Meadows - Burghound

"(from shallow soil that is a mixture of clay and fragmented rock). Very mild reduction does not significantly detract from the pretty combination of citrus rind, spiced pear and dried floral aromas. There is really lovely detail to the rounded, intense and attractively dry flavors that possess fine transparency on the clean, energetic and persistent finish."

91 Wine Spectator

"Honey and baked apple flavors are the main themes, with a touch of butter and grapefruit. Starts creamy and ends lean and focused. Best from 2014 through 2022. 120 cases imported."
