2020 Clos des Jacobins Pre-Arrival Offer

Other Reviews....
The 2020 Clos des Jacobins is very nicely done. Soft and open-knit, Clos des Jacobins offers quite a bit of both immediacy and appeal. Sweet red berry fruit, mocha, licorice, spice, menthol and espresso build in a creamy, inviting Saint-Émilion that will drink well with minimal cellaring. A second bottle showed quite a bit more tannic bite. Tasted two times.

Antonio Galloni - Vinous

Blackberry, blueberry and dark-chocolate character with a chewy finish. Full-to medium-bodied. Black walnut. Dark earth. Excellent quality of tannins.

James Suckling

Black pepper spice on the nose, this has slightly austere blue and blackberry fruits and clear limestone influence in the juice. Will take a few years to come around, but the coffee grounds and grilled oak that sit underneath the fruit right now play nicely into the whole, giving a sleek, successful and confident feel. Magali and Thibault Decoster are the owners here, Hubert de Boüard the consultant. Harvest September 21 to 28, 75% new oak for ageing.
