Lea & Sandeman review
The continuation of the same slope as the Clos Guillot. Much more chalky - the soil here is white. Hence a more mineral wine. Rich and dense, and already more aromatically defined. Strict, good volume in the mouth, dense dry black flavours which transcend the simply fruity - coal and carbon, incredibly fine and detailed. Keep three to five years to start seeing the best of this one.
