Burghound: 93 Points
A more deeply pitched and slightly riper nose blends notes of poached plum warm earth and more prominent pepper nuances. There is better density to the beautifully textured medium-bodied flavors thanks to the abundance of dry extract buffering the firm tannic spine shaping the youthfully austere sappy and seriously long finale. This is excellent and absolutely worth your interest. (Drink starting 2028)
jgVinous: 91+ Points
From granite and quartz soils the 2020 Fleurie La Clos Vernay has a perfumed rose petal scented bouquet with ample red cherry and crushed strawberry fruit. The palate is medium-bodied with crisp tannins quite tensile and steely broody on the finish. Give this 3-4 years in bottle. (Drink between 2025-2040)
