97 Points Robert Parker Wine Advocate
The 2019 Clos Saint-Denis Grand Cru is performing superbly in bottle, soaring from the glass with scents of cherries, red berries, rose petals, orange peel and exotic spices. Full-bodied, ample and sensual, it’s seamless and complete, with a velvety attack that segues into a vibrant core of fruit, concluding with a long, perfumed finish.
93-95 Points Allen Meadows
A markedly floral-suffused nose freely offers up notes of dark raspberry, anise, tea and a hint of earth. There is a highly beguiling texture on the beautifully well-detailed flavors that possess lovely density if not the same sheer scale as the Clos de la Roche though the mouthfeel is clearly finer, all wrapped in an equally sneaky long finish. This is perhaps not quite as structured but at present, the CSD and the CdlR are qualitative equals.
