Elegant, cool and mildly exotic aromas speak of discreet but not imperceptible wood, lemon zest, spice and plenty of floral elements. The racy, intense and beautifully well-delineated flavors possess good minerality and detail as well as very good power on the overtly saline-inflected and impressively persistent finish where the wood telegraphed by the nose reemerges. Definitely one to consider.

An oaky style, featuring smoky vanilla, clove and resin notes underscored by candied lemon. Bracing acidity ties it all together, and the long finish extends the spice elements. Flamboyant and impressive.

Winemaker Notes

Le Clos is extraordinarily rich with layer upon layer of ripe apple, pair, and spice. The finish is driven by mineral with a firm gripping acidity.
