Powerful, deep and rich, well-balanced and well-structured. This wine (2020) could have used a decade or more, but it was wonderful in 2023—decanted an hour before serving with a lamb-eggplant dish. — 8 months ago
As close to perfection as can be..,, smooth, silken, 2-minute finish. Nose of ripe, preserved, wrinkled apples…complete, complex, hints of baking spices, lighter than anticipated, but packing that 80 proof wallop. I anticipate most of bottle will grace a cool winter evening in front of the fire for 2 couples! — a year ago

This was Minute Maid lemonade mix, violets, and the smell of freshly sanded wood. Really fine acidity and surprising depth. I could sniff these for hours. I kinda did. I think @Carla Hine thought I was weird for doing so. — 2 years ago
Simple, pure fruit. Blood orange, clove and cinnamon on the nose. Smooth on the palate. Very easy to drink with bright red fruit and a well balanced acidity. — 4 years ago

The 2019 Chablis Les Clos Grand Cru has an effervescent bouquet with orange zest and almond scents. Seaspray touches come through with aeration. The palate is well balanced with a pleasant sour lemon twist on the entry, relatively fresh and tensile with a brisk, quite peppery, lemony finish that lingers in the mouth. Superb. Tasted blind at the annual Burgfest tasting. (Neal Martin, Vinous, December 2023)
