2018 Clos St. Julien

A wine couldn't smell more noble, all the components are incredibly fine and elegant, this is a perfume that only nature can create in this richness and complexity, just holding your nose to this glass is a heavenly pleasure. Based on the aroma, this must be one of the greatest Clos St. Julien that I know, as evidenced by the goose bumps that cover my whole body. Confirmation on the palate, a wine could not be more refined, a palate flow like velvet and silk, fresh fruit without end, an extra sweetness that takes my mind away, a wealth of aromas that cannot be described in words and the whole thing floats over the palate with a lightness that is proverbial. I have tears in my eyes, I can't stop marveling, the wine touches me deeply, it is pure nectar, highly concentrated but super-slim, fine, even delicate, a real masterpiece in the interplay of nature and a passionate winemaker.
