Chateau Clos de Sarpe Grand Cru Classe 2020

97–98
/100

Clos de Sarpe ligger lige ved siden af Haut Sarpe. To vingårde på kalkstensplateauet i Saint-Émilion, ved afkørslen mod Castillon. Clos de Sarpe er den mindre, finere vingård, som er meget dyrere blandt insidere. Næsen er krydret. Enebær, rosmarin og lavendel. Fyldig og tæt, med søde morbær nedenunder. Meget sort, lidt gul frugt og appelsinskal. Ganske meget kraft i munden. Krydret på samme tid. Fyldig sort frugt, lakrids, meget blomsteragtig. Og så en masse fremdrift, en masse kalksten bagtil. Med længde, med salt, med appelsinskal og en vidunderlig friskhed. Ikke en blockbuster, ikke en fed vin, men meget elegant, aromatisk, tæt og elegant. En unik vin, meget individuel i sin stil. Jeg kan rigtig godt lide den! 97-98/100

Jeb Dunnuck om: Chateau Clos de Sarpe Grand Cru Classe

I always love the wines from this tiny estate, which is located on the upper plateau of Saint-Emilion, and their 2020 Château Clos De Sarpe is another brilliant wine. Deep purple-hued, with a powerful bouquet of ripe cassis and black cherry fruits as well as camphor, graphite, and liquid violets, it's flawlessly balanced, has remarkable purity of fruit, building tannins, and well-integrated oak. This wine can age beautifully, and this 2020 will still be drinking brilliantly in 20, 30, if not 40 years. Bravo. Tasted multiple times, and I rated it as high as 98 on one occasion. 96+/100

Galloni om: Chateau Clos de Sarpe Grand Cru Classe

The 2020 Clos du Sarpe is an exotic beauty. Blackberry jam, graphite, menthol, licorice, crushed rocks, incense and white truffle give Clos du Sarpe its exotic profile. The aromatics alone are mesmerizing, but everything about the 2020 is so alluring. The 2020 needs time to soften, but it is compelling. 96/100

Suckling om: Chateau Clos de Sarpe Grand Cru Classe

Full-bodied and layered with blackberries, black olives, walnuts and bark. Juicy. Superb depth and richness with so many layers of fruit and tannins. From organically grown grapes. Old-vine cabernet franc comes through. 95-96/100

Parker om: Chateau Clos de Sarpe Grand Cru Classe

Opaque purple-black in color, the 2020 Clos de Sarpe rolls seductively out of the glass with opulent scents of Chinese five spice, rose oil, sandalwood and camphor, leading to a core of plum preserves, blueberry pie and fragrant soil, with a touch of woodsmoke. The rich, full-bodied palate is, as always, not lacking in freshness, delivering layer upon layer of spicy black fruit preserves and a velvety texture, finishing very long and beautifully perfumed. The blend this year is 85% Merlot and 15% Cabernet Franc, aging for an estimated 13 months in French oak barrels, 70% new. The alcohol weighs-in at 15%. 94-96+/100
