Note di degustazione
The wine is an impressive blend of 75% Merlot and 25% Cabernet Franc, made under the supervision of Hubert de Bouard. I don’t think Clos La Madeleine has ever made a better wine. This 2009 has liqueur of dusty chalk intermixed with red and black fruits, hints of blackberry and black cherry, and loads of full-bodied opulence yet great structure and definition. This is a sleeper of the vintage and a personal best for Clos La Madeleine, long under the radar of wine consumers. Anticipated maturity: 2018-2035. The best wine ever made from this tiny 8-acre vineyard, on a brilliant terroir just below Belair-Monange and Magdelaine, yields were 32 hectoliters per hectare.

Soapy floral nose. Very luscious, glass-coating fruit. Pretty dramatic without being over the top. Crunchy, juicy fruit. Quite charming yet with fine tannins underneath. Nice wine, even if not for the very long term. (JR)
Aromas of minerals, flowers and cool fruit, follow through to a medium-to-full body, with well-integrated tannins and a racy tannin structure. Try in 2014. James Suckling, jamessuckling.com
