Note di degustazione
The 2023 Clos René is a very beautiful wine that marries classicism with the riper side of the year. That's a pretty appealing combination in my book. Racy and soft, with gorgeous textural finesse, Clos René is seductive right out of the gate. Polished tannins and floral overtones lift a core of dark-fleshed fruit. The balance here is impeccable.

The 2023 Clos René has a relatively light and straightforward bouquet compared to other vintages recently tasted. The palate is medium-bodied, conservative in style, good backbone with a touch of bitterness on the finish. Just misses the flair of the best vintages in recent years.
Based on 75% Merlot, 20% Cabernet Franc, and the rest Merlot, the 2023 Clos René is a medium-bodied, focused, slightly old school-styled effort that has attractive darker cherry and blackberry fruits, some spicy, earth, leathery nuances, ripe tannins, good mid-palate depth, and solid length on the finish. Coming from the talented team of Thomas Duclos, it's a satisfying effort that will drink well for a decade.
Medium-bodied, soft, silky, and fresh, the fruit delivers a vibrancy, elegance, and creamy character that allows the earthy, cherries, and chocolate to express their essence. The wine blends 75% Merlot, 20% Cabernet Franc, and 5% Malbec.
