The elusive 2015 Clos de Lambrays Grand Cru is a bumper crop of...180-liters this year. As is customary, it is made in a used barrel tailored to the quantity. It has an expressive bouquet with ample morello cherry, raspberry preserve, hints of rose petals and a hint of orange blossom. The palate is medium-bodied with a fine tensile opening, fine salinity and energy with a brisk, saline finish that shows good weight and persistence. What a lovely wine...good luck finding it.
A lovely nose offers up notes of wild cherry, raspberry, spice and discreet warm earth hints. The slightly finer and delineated medium weight flavors possess a lovely sense of underlying tension along with a subtle minerality, all wrapped in a dusty, serious and moderately firm finale. This too will require at least some patience.
