Estimate
...layered and perfumed aromatic profile...impressively concentrated and palate staining flavors that possess striking precision on the explosively long and bone dry finish. This is a great Les Clos that will make old bones.
...lime peel, seashell, spices, mint oil, white flowers and smoky, flinty minerality. Extremely backward on the palate, showing hints of smoked ham and dusty stone...extraordinary palate-saturating finish is like chewing on rocks today.
Clean and focused, with apple, lemon, yellow plum and mineral notes riding a firm structure. This is balanced, showing a chalklike texture and a savory element on the finish.
Concentrated, fine and refined. Intensely mineral and dry. Fresh with a sort of peppery spice on the finish but it’s more the texture than the flavour – tongue-tingling. Very long. (JH)
