James Suckling: 94 Points

Sweet vanilla and fragrant perfumed red berries and flowers lead to a palate that has a rich and sturdy feel. This has the structure to really deliver in time. Beautifully structured fresh and long palate here. Try from 2022.

The Wine Independent: 93 Points

The 2016 Clos des Jacobins is deep garnet colored. It needs a little coaxing to reveal notes of tilled soil crushed rocks and cigar box over a core of stewed plums and blackberry pie plus a hint of truffle. Medium to full-bodied the palate delivers chewy tannins and plenty of freshness to support the rich black fruits finishing earthy. -Reviewed by: Lisa Perrotti-Brown

Vinous: 92 Points

The 2016 Clos des Jacobins is a big rich wine with tons of dark fruit and equally imposing structure. Dark cherry mocha plum espresso wild flowers and menthol all add character. This is a decidedly powerful extracted style. The oak tannins have started to integrate but ideally readers will be able to give the 2016 at least a few years in bottle to allow the wine to be at its best. - By Antonio Galloni on December 2018
