Alexandre Ma om:
Chateau Clos Saint Martin Grand Cru Classe
Remarkable. The fruit expression of Clos Saint Martin 2025 reaches an astonishing level of clarity. Even within its near jam-like intensity, the aromatics remain clean and sharply defined; it is no exaggeration to say the nose alone is enough to captivate. Blueberry, blackberry, mulberry, and bayberry unfold in layers, rich yet never muddled. On the palate, the experience shifts, no longer just an extension of aroma, but a fresh, luminous surge of fruit that spreads with fluidity and transparency, almost melting on contact. What impresses even more is the sense of effortless control: the wine is highly concentrated, yet entirely free of heaviness; the structure is powerful, yet shows no trace of force, everything unfolding naturally. As that vibrant, juice-laden fruit saturates the senses, resistance becomes almost impossible. Once again, this wine shows how Bordeaux can carry the expression of terroir to a level that commands admiration.
