Drinking Window: 2020 - 2030
The Clos is excellent this year, opening in the glass with aromas of confit citrus, Meyer lemon, wet stones and a smoky framing of light reduction. On the palate the wine is full-bodied, concentrated and powerful - the most powerful of Michel’s grand cru bottlings - with intense, chalky minerality, superb depth, tensile acids and a long, vibrant finish.
