  March 23, 2024 - I can't say I've ever been blown away by a Clos de Ducs at this point; I haven't had a lot, but still given the prices these days it seems like it should be pretty awesome stuff; this had a nice nose with ripe almost liqueur like berry fruits, the classic minerality of this wine, some wilted floral notes and just a hint of autumn leaves; still certainly fairly primary at 15; the palate is rich and borderline heavy with a bit of alcohol peeking out that just throws the balance off; a touch hot on the back end; if it were 1/2 a degree less it would probably be amazing, but as it is the alcohol level threw it off for me. Still enjoyable and I drank it, but I certainly wouldn't buy it again.
