  March 9, 2022 - Dark berry, mint and green pepper nose. Medium to full bodied fruit, moderate tannins and sufficient acidity to create a very well balanced mouth feel. Lengthy smooth finish.

  October 23, 2021 - As my note of May 2021. Deep colour and fragrant nose with good fruit. Perhaps some nice hints of eucalyptus as it opened. Black cherry fruit with fragrance and spice on the palate with attractive, slightly leathery soft tannins. Good balance and length. I think this vintage still has a future but, sadly, this was our last bottle. I hope my more recent vintages develop like this one and offer as much pleasure.
  It got better over a few hours. My wife, who has a fine palate, loved it. One of the few red wines she really enjoys without food. Exceptional wine.

  October 9, 2021 - Dark fruit nose of blackberry and plum creates a soft mouth feel on the palate with the acidity and tannins integrating well. Livelier than the 2008 and fresher it delivers a smoother experience.

  June 23, 2019 - Deep garnet it in color. Nose of stewed cherries, leather, and earth. Tastes of cherries, tobacco, and menthol. Astringent on days one and two but opened up nicely on day three and four. They structure a good balance. Well age for another 5 to 7 years.

  May 30, 2019 - Still a deep colour - good extraction. Opened 6h prior. Good nose. Lots of black cherry fruit with fragrance and spice on the nose and palate. The leathery tannins have softened over the last few years but are still a feature (and make the wine good with food). Quite fragrant, spicy, and long. Worth cellaring to this point and probably for a few years yet. I haven't yet had a Clos that I felt was too old.
