Cask sample. Red fruit and cola on the nose, with plenty of oak spice in the mix too. Highly tannic and stocky in structure. Not the most powerful example of fruit intensity, but enough to open up and reveal hidden depths.

“I am looking to be Cistercian here” says Benoit. The upper part of the Clos is on a hard limestone, covered by a little silt from the Combe de Grisard. It has just been racked and is displaying a slightly more sombre red purple colour. Some rich liquorice and dark raspberry notes, though the structure is stricter, with limestone austerity, albeit less tannic. I think the ‘limestone austerity’ is what Benoît means by Cistercian.
