Tasting notes
A perfumed nose of cherries, raspberries, wild strawberries, sweet spices and toasted sourdough. Medium-bodied with fine tannins and crisp acidity. Succulent and fresh with a redcurrant character on the mid-palate and great balance. Vibrant and flavorful finish. Drink or hold.

The king of the cellar, the 2017 Clos Saint-Denis Grand Cru wafts from the glass with expressive aromas of wild berries, dried rose petal, grilled game bird, rich soil and blood orange. On the palate, it's full-bodied, ample and broad, with a deep core of succulent fruit that cloaks its elegantly satiny and supple structuring tannins, concluding with a long, fragrant finish. This is a lovely Clos Saint-Denis that will be well worth seeking out in bottle.
