Clos Rene 2022

Falstaff 93 points.

"Deep dark ruby in colour with purple reflections, and subtle brightening on the rim. On the nose a developed bouquet of sweet cherry, ripe plum, a touch of fig and candied orange zest, On the palate, the wine has pronounced, supporting tannins, with notes of sweet fig, dark nougat and a sweet, chocolatey finish which tends towards a riper, late harvest style with less freshness."

"Alluring freshness and minerality here with a touch of white pepper, walnut husk, sweet spices, iron and savory plums. Fresh and textured with firm tannins and an extensive finish. Reserved, traditional and pretty classic. Drink from 2026." - James Suckling.
