95 Points, Kasia Sobiesiak (The Wine Front) – “This deserves a big glass. Le Cloux is a touch heavier than Chazelle. It’s spicier and more curdy. The fabric of flavour is heavy but cool and smooth, like thick satin. On offer are slippery green melon flesh, cream slice, toasted almond, maybe even a richer nut like macadamia. All delicious aromas, none dominating the wine. And that’s because there’s a strong citrus skin and flint stone thread that zips it all up, and keeps it taut and fresh in the finish. Another superstart form Aline Beauné..”

A new cuvee from Aline & a very good one at that.

A higher cooler site than Chazelle & a real contrast in style.  Racy &  very mineral.

Sourced from vines up to 45 years of age on a rocky and stony site.

 

Tax included.
