5-Oh Bday Dinner... From a half bottle. Deep red and purple color. Mostly opaque and thick in the glass. There is still some good fruit in the nose with gravel and soil notes. Very round in the mouth. The wine hung in there over the hour it was consumed. Nice experience with an 80+ year old wine. — 11 years ago
Just an amazing expression of Terroir, totally naked and brilliantly balanced, including dusty tannins and dito minerality, Syrah spice and a meat stock infused finish. Note to Self - Clos Saron rules! — 12 years ago

Strong apricot and peach aroma with acidic with a slightly barny acidic taste. Loved it although only great for a glass or two due to strong flavor. — 11 years ago

Very easy going ! Nose of cherry. Superb palate, quite simple yet elegant, on cherry and blood with a very long acid back bone. The glass keeps getting empty very fast ... love it — 9 years ago
