My notes from three pours using the Coravin were very consistent. It works! The wine was still superb, actually with a little age now, even better than my original notes. Deep ruby red with focused aromas of black fruit, herbs and spice. The palate is focused, with fresh flavors of sweet ripe dark fruit, mostly plum, blackberry and black cherry, with complex oak, leather and chocolate. The wine is well balanced, tannins continuing to develop nicely, slightly savory, finishing with sweet vanilla oak notes. — 10 years ago

Blackberries and cassis having an orgy. Deep purple coloring. Incredible depth. So many layers. Tannins still integrating but silky smooth. Cedar. Sampled via Coravin. — 11 years ago

This is one of the best old cabs I have had In a long time. Tried to coravin but cork wasn't up@to snuff Popped it and it was singing. Red cherry and earth. This is the wine that made me fall in love with wine in the 1985 vintage. I should@go back on this list — 10 years ago

2008 tasted via Coravin on 1-10-2015. Perfumed nose, elegant, light bodied Napa Cab. Smooth tannins, matching perfectly with grass-fed Tbone. Will get better with time. Beautiful now. — 11 years ago

Thank you coravin! Couldn't afford a bottle like this but got to taste. Outstanding! Black cherry with some smokiness. Great length, very powerful. Best bouquet I've ever experienced. Hope to drink again some day. — 12 years ago

2009 vintage, Le Clos from Coravin. Medium ruby hue. On the nose, medium plus intensity of blackberry, sloe, pencil shavings, smoke and savoury spices. Some pyrazines and leafiness. There's some pleasant development - mainly leather and earth. Nice complexity despite its youth. On the palate, dry, high acidity, medium body, medium tannin - chewy. Medium alcohol and long savoury, black fruity finish. Delicious. There's a real tang on the mid palate and with air there's more smoke and savoury tones than at first blush. Classic Clos Rougeard. Drink now until 2026+. 93/100 — 10 years ago
