2023 Clos de l'Oratoire, Grand Cru Classé St-Emilion

2023 Clos de l'Oratoire, Grand Cru Classé St-Emilion

Floral and explosive on the nose, thanks to a hefty dose of Cabernet Franc. Dried rose petals, fresh mint, sage, dried peel and wild strawberry on the nose. Crushed chalk element to the texture on the palate with a long, silky finish.

Tasting notes

This shows tight tannins and a racy feel, with floral, black-cherry and dark-fruit notes in both the nose and palate. It’s medium-bodied with a refined and complex nature. Long and true. Finesse with depth.
