Clos Rene needs some time before it can be enjoyed. Young vintages can be for an average of 1 hour, give or take. This allows the wine to soften and open its perfume.
Black cherries, licorice, flowers and truffle make an appearance in the nose. The wine is medium-bodied, with a lush, polished, silky, fresh palate presence which is perfect for all of its ripe, pure, energetic, red pit fruits and spice. This has really come on strong during its barrel aging. In fact, this is at the level of the older vintages from the 40s and 50s. Drink from 2024-2045
