Tasting Notes
Robert Parker 93+
From a small, four-hectare vineyard that the Vauthier family acquired in 2014, the 2019 La Clotte offers up inviting aromas of wild blueberries, licorice, coniferous forest floor and sweet spices. Medium to full-bodied, bright and concentrated, it’s tightly wound, with lively acids and chalky tannins. This is a promising effort from an estate in the ascendant.
Anticipated maturity: 2025-2050
Vinous NR
The 2019 La Clotte has a perfumed and more floral nose than its peers, very well integrated oak, though it feels a bit corked. The palate is medium-bodied with fine tannins, very pure black fruit laced with cedar, but maybe a touch of TCA denudes it freshness on the finish. Tasted blind at the Southwold annual tasting.
