Color: deep, intense red. Nose: this Premier Cru reveals a finely oaked aromatic palette, delicate and well-integrated, with scents of spices (pepper, vanilla) and honey. The second nose is radiant. Palate: ample, fleshy, and generous, yet retaining undeniable elegance and finesse. Fine, granular tannins offer a silky, smooth, and lingering finish. Pairing: hare à la royale. Comment: a subtle, elegant, and consistently great Clos.
