The Clos du Roy is naturally strong ant prone to ageing, its winemaking process is lead by a consistent care for balance and delicacy. \u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eProfessional Ratings\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e93 Jeb Dunnuck\u003cbr\u003eThe 2020 Clos Du Roy offers up a pure, beautifully clean bouquet of ripe black cherries, plums, tobacco, and cedary spices. This carries to a medium to full-bodied Fronsac with a balanced, layered mouthfeel, nicely integrated acidity, and a great finish. It's a stunning Fronsac to enjoy over the coming 10-15 years.\u003cbr\u003e92 James Suckling\u003cbr\u003eA juicy red with blackberry, chocolate and walnut aromas and flavors. Medium to full body. Round tannins. Chewy at the end. Needs time to soften. Try after 2026.\u003cbr\u003e92 Robert Parker's Wine Advocate\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eDeep purple-black colored, the 2020 Clos du Roy leaps from the glass with vibrant notes of black cherries, baked plums and mossy tree bark, with wafts of wild mushrooms and chargrill. The medium to full-bodied palate delivers a rock-solid structure of grainy tannins and bold freshness to support the generous black fruit, finishing earthy. Barrel Sample: 90-92\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e92 Decanter\u003cbr\u003eLimestone austerity comes through pretty strongly on the attack in the form of a slate and crushed stone texture, followed by plenty of freshly cut herbs and fairly subdued raspberry and blueberry fruit, with touches of richer and more mellow pie crust as it opens up. This is a classic well-balanced Fronsac with a ton of appellation typicity. Vignobles Hermouet. 33% new oak.\u003cbr\u003eBarrel Sample: 92\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Clos du Roy","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":42975646384352,"sku":"102689","price":34.99,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0649\/9713\/0464\/products\/clos-du-roy-fronsac_1.jpg?v=1663884597","url":"https:\/\/www.mywineconnection.com\/products\/clos-du-roy-fronsac-2018-750ml","provider":"My Wine Connection","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
