"Aromas of mirabelle, soft citrus fruit and wild herbs. Juicy, dry and tight; leaner and less fruity than the Clos Saint-Jean, showing a strong smoky, stony minerality that I did not find in the 2011 version of this wine. Finishes broad and resounding, with a strong wet stone character. This will need time in bottle."
