Description: | Winery Notes. The style of the vintages. These wines are like us – living and ever changing. There is no ‘ideal age'; everything depends on each person's own taste and the individual evolution of each wine. Even the so-called ‘lesser' vintages possess a surprisingly long potential lifespan. As for the greatest, eternity is theirs!. 2008: Very characteristic of Climens, beautifully mineral with a hint of saline notes and elegant freshness. Published Notes. (93 Points) Tasted single blind against its peers. This has a very well -defined nose of dried pineapple, quince and vanilla pod that unfolds seductively in the glass. The palate is medium-bodied with a mellifluous texture, although there remains some oak that needs to be subsumed into the wine. It displays fine definition towards the finish with impressive length. Always a little curmudgeonly in its youth, this Climens deserves a decade in bottle. Tasted January 2012. 199, The Wine Advocate. |
