Jane Anson - Inside Bordeaux

Falstaff

Deep dark ruby garnet colour with purple reflections, subtle brightening on the rim. Intense blackberries, ripe plums, inviting bouquet, a hint of nougat and orange zest in the background. Juicy, textured, chocolatey and round, ripe, fine tannins, persistent, could be drunk immediately, certain ageing potential.

Jeff Leve, The Wine Cellar Insider

Black plums, black cherries, licorice, and black raspberries with a floral edge lead to a richly-textured wine loaded with supple, creamy, soft, dark red fruits, licorice, spice, and salty chocolate that comes in at the backend of the finish. The wine blends 85% Merlot, with 15% Cabernet Franc. 15% ABV, 3.73 pH. Drink from 2025-2040.

The 2022 Château La Clotte is another serious wine in the lineup. Mulled black cherries, liquid violets, spicy wood, and smoky, chocolaty nuances are just some of this wine’s nuances, and it's medium full-bodied, has a pure, layered mouthfeel, silky tannins, and a gorgeous finish. It's one hell of a gorgeous Saint-Emilion that deserves 4-5 years of bottle age and will evolve for two decades.

James Suckling

Beautifully ripe yet fresh, with ink, graphite, paprika, lush dark cherries, minerals and cocoa powder. Full-bodied and firm yet open-grained, with polished tannins and a very long finish. Drink from 2027.

Robert Parker Wine Advocate

The 2022 La Clotte has turned out very well in bottle, offering up aromas of cassis, cherries and incense framed by a deft touch of toasty new oak. Medium to full-bodied, supple and suave, it's pure and seamless, with a lively spine of acidity and a long, saline finish. This small four-hectare estate on the outskirts of Saint-Émilion is establishing itself as one of the gems in the Vauthier portfolio.

Druvor

85% Merlot & 15% Cabernet Franc.

Tasting note

Acquired in 2014 by the Vauthier family, Château La Clotte is a small vine garden of four hectares located behind the ramparts to the south of Saint-Émilion. La Clotte is a building nestled against the cliff face with deep quarry labyrinths beneath its vineyard. The vineyard has been thought through plot by plot to reveal the richness of its eleven plots. The cellar is dug into the rock and ensures ideal conditions for aging.

Like its neighbor Ausone, despite a hot and humid spring, the character of the slopes of Saint-Émilion defines this vintage. Meticulous work in the vineyard focused on controlling vigor and managing vegetation cover. Ripeness was optimal thanks to the return of dry and mild weather in September. Intense purple in color. The great aromatic purity and notes of red berry fruits, spices, and fresh almonds characterize the expression of this vintage. On the palate, the attack is smooth, and the velvety tannins are enveloping. The finish is precise with a tension that is perfectly balanced.
