The 2014 'Le Petit Clos' is a simply fascinating wine composed of 40% Cabernet Sauvignon, 30% Carmenére, 28% Merlot and 2% Petit Verdot which spent 18 months in new 225L French oak for 8 months, followed by an additional 18 months in a combination of new and seasoned French oak barrels and vats. This stunning red bursts opens with profound aromas of blackberreis and dark currants which are woven together with spices, cedar, spring floral, chocolate, roasted coffee and hints of loamy notes. On the palate is dense and concentrated, with plush layers of ripe dark fruits, spices and cedar notes building on the long multidemsional finish. A simply incredible wine, which is simply delicious now, yet possesses the potential to thrive in the cellar for many years.
