97 JG. "The 2009 William Fèvre Les Clos is a brilliant wine in the making. This is one of the most minerally complex examples of the vintage that I tasted during my trip, as the wine simply soars from the glass in a profound blend of green apples, tart orange, smoke, flint, wet stones, crystalline soil tones and a really lovely, floral topnote redolent of white flowers. On the palate the wine is deep, full-bodied and very, very pure on the attack, with great mid-palate intensity, brisk acids, laser-like focus and stunning length and grip on the multi-faceted finish. A great, great wine." John Gilman, View From the Cellar, Nov/Dec 2010, Issue #30 |
