    November 19, 2022 - Beautiful and smoky bouquet with dark berries. On the palate juicy dark fruits, good acidity, a touch of sweetness and round tannin with a firm bite.

I ordered a 2010 Clos des Jacobins for dinner and it was very good. The family that runs this Chateau is related to the family that runs Fleur Cardinale. Another of my St Emilion favorites. I usually dont even try my StE wines until they are 9-10 years old. So will try one in 2025 or 2026. I have 9 bottles so many to drink. Cheers !!
