2020 Clos St Martin, St Emilion, Bordeaux

Description

Always a powerful wine, the 2020 Clos Saint-Martin is no exception and sports a dense purple/plum color as well as a primordial bouquet of smoky black fruits, tobacco, scorched earth, graphite, and truffle. A powerhouse on the palate as well, this full-bodied, rich, incredibly concentrated Saint-Emilion has building yet perfectly ripe tannins, a gorgeous mid-palate, and just about flawless balance. It might be the finest wine I've tasted from this estate. Hide bottles for 5-7 years and enjoy over the following 30 years or more.

Drink 2028 - 2058

About this wine

Saint-Emilion

Saint-Emilion

First officially classified in 1954, St-Émilion is one of Bordeaux's largest winemaking appellations, producing more wine than Listrac, Moulis, St Estèphe, Pauillac, St Julien and Margaux combined. Many of the region's finest vineyards can be found atop the steep limestone slopes of the village itself, although a fledgling band of garagiste producers are eschewing terroir to make small-batch, deeply-concentrated wines from their homes.
