Exhibiting notions of cherries, blackberries and licorice, the 2021 Clos de l'Oratoire is medium to full-bodied, broad and enveloping, with a textural attack, bright acids and a fleshy core of fruit, framed by fine tannins that gently assert themselves on the finish. It's one of the more gourmand, generous wines in the von Neipperg range.
This has redcurrants, mushrooms, bark and blueberries. Medium-bodied, with a tight and linear character and well-integrated, fine tannins that run the length of the wine. Almost Burgundian in texture. Polished. A blend of 80% merlot and 20% cabernet franc. Give this time to open.
The 2021 Clos de l’Oratoire is a gorgeous, dynamic wine. Energetic and brilliant, the 2021 sizzles with tension. Bright acids and veins of tannin give the wine its vibrant personality. Dark red/purplish fruit, lavender, rose petal, mint and mocha abound. This is a very, very fine Clos de l'Oratoire.
