Description

93 points William Kelley (Wine Advocate): “The 2018 Fleurie Clos de la Grand’Cour bursts with notes of raspberries, cherries, rose petals, cinnamon and blood orange. On the palate, it’s medium to full-bodied, supple and enveloping, with a juicy core of fruit, ripe acids and melting tannins. Pretty, open-knit and fleshy, this was matured half in foudre and half in old barrels. Drink: 2019-2029. (Aug 2019)”

93 points Josh Raynolds (Vinous): “Shimmering magenta. Displays red/blue fruit compote, candied rose and mineral aromas, along with notes of anise and smoked meat. Silky and spicy on the palate, offering concentrated and alluringly sweet raspberry, cherry and floral pastille flavors that are underscored by a dusty mineral nuance. Youthful tannins build slowly through the strikingly long, floral-tinged finish, which leaves sappy red fruit and exotic spice notes behind. Drink: 2022-2030. (Oct 2019)”
