Tasted at Vintex. The Clauzet has a rather floral, almost Margaux-like bouquet with good definition, smoky, earthy aromas developing with further aeration. The palate is full-bodied with dense, chewy tannins, a masculine Saint Estèphe with good weight, but showing good definition and focus towards the finish that should unwind nicely throughout its élevage. Tasted March 2010
Very dark crimson. A little blurry and furry on the nose. Loose and sweet and lots of early pleasure. A little spine of minerality. Very nice short- term wine.
