91 Points

Wednesday, September 11, 2019 - This was the last of the case and, as in my other notes on this wine I remained mildly disappointed to the end. It's a lovely wine, but not the powerhouse one would imagine from this grower, vineyard and year. Light gold in colour this sample of Les Clos has an open nose of white flowers and soft orchard fruits coming through. On the palate it is a wine of medium weight with pure flavours and good precision. It is unquestionably classy, but just lacks that 'wow' factor. Everything is in harmony, but it just doesn't excite. Elegant with a long finish, but never managed to press my button. This sample was also coming to the end of its drinking window so if typical then it needs drinking up soon. Estimated maturity: 2012-2020
