Very chambolle and pretty. Darkish cloudy red. Note of wild strawberry, cherry and spices. Medium body and acidity. Could smell this for a very long time. Seductive. — 7 years ago

This forty eight year old Clair-Dau the precursor of Bruno Clair. The last vintage made by Joseph Clair Bruno’s Grandfather. Exquisite, transcendent yet with power and grace. 1971 Vintage — 6 years ago
Medium bodied. Ever present oak and wood on the palate that's touched up by dark, leafy greens and bramble. Soft in the mouth.
Some air unlocks some of the hidden tannins and some more fruit comes through. — 8 years ago
Similar to the clos Marion from this producer. Along with some definite perfumed notes. Really really pretty, yet still quite young. — 8 years ago
Muted dark fruits on the nose and palate. White pepper with a touch of cigar box on the finish. Balanced and firm. — 3 years ago

Bright tawny color, translucent. Exotic nose with notes of cherry, rhubarb, Asian spice, earth and raspberry. Amazing perfume. In the mouth this shows the 96 vintage battle of fruit vs acidity. Still lots of acidity and structure right now, but the fruit is running second place. Good showing overall tonight. What will this be in 5 years I'm wondering. — 7 years ago
1996 vintage. At Ryozanpaku in Kyoto, Japan. Medium garnet - slight bricking around the edge. Medium intensity of aromas, manure, earth, blackberry, violet creams and savoury spices. Fairly complex if slightly mature. On the palate, good fresh acidity, medium body and noticeable rounded tannins. The mid palate is flavoursome and impressive. The finish is slightly short. Probably won't benefit from further ageing. However, I suggest giving the wine 30 minutes of air before serving. — 8 years ago
