A tasty effort from the Reiffers family, this 2007 (70% Merlot, 15% Cabernet Franc, and 15% Cabernet Sauvignon) exhibits dusty, earthy notes, a lush, medium-bodied style, and abundant black cherry fruit, herb, and spice characteristics. It is deep, medium-bodied, and best drunk over the next 7-8 years. (RP)

Seamless wine! Starts with lovely aromas of red fruit and spice, earthy notes and black currants with touch of red plum. On the palate it has great structure with very smooth developed tannins, bright fruit and charming earthiness. Charming and perfect for drinking it now.

This has pretty red fruit on the nose: black cherry, strawberry and minerals. The extra merlot gives this a riper edge than some other clarets from the vintage, but there is still great acidity. It is just starting to show savory elements like leather and forest floor. I had this with Christmas dinner, and it was showing great!

Purchased in 2013 by the Cuvelier family, owners of neighboring Clos Fourtet, along with Clos St-Martin and Les Grandes Murailles. This continues a centuries-old tradition of family ownership that dates back to the founding of the property in 1643. Toasty oak and a hint of violets on the nose. Merlot dominates the blend in this Right Bank value, with ripe, almost jammy plum notes. Finishes with fine tannins.
