Tasting Notes

The 2013 Chablis Grand Cru Les Clos has a clean and precise, chalk and white flower-scented bouquet with just a touch of lemon curd behind. The palate is well balanced with good weight in the mouth, just a touch of spice and citrus peel, grilled walnut and smoke surfacing toward the finish that fans out nicely. Excellent.

Score: 93

Neal Martin, Wine Advocate, RobertParker.com Maturity: 2016-2029 28 August 2015

The perfumed and penetrating nose is unusually expressive for a young Les Clos and there is so much iodine, mineral reduction and oyster shell nuances present that this could be from nowhere else but Chablis. The big, powerful and imposingly scaled flavors ooze both dry extract and a pungent minerality yet the balance is perfect on the intensely saline finish that is markedly dry but once again not really austere. This should be terrific though note that patience will be required. Don't miss!

Score: 93 - 96

The 2013 Chablis Les Clos wraps around the palate with gorgeous depth and textural balance. A wine of seamless balance, texture and harmony, the 2013 Clos is super-expressive today. The oak is a bit evident today, although all the wines in the range were raised in neutral barrels, perhaps the sign of a vintage with modest structure. Time will tell.

Score: 92 - 94
