Château Climens 2010

Robert Parker’s Wine Advocate

The 2010 Climens is a mercurial wine – Bérénice Lurton commenting that is keeps changing personality in recent months. Here, it has closed in a little, with tightly wound honeyed fruit, fresh pear and a touch of candle wax. The palate is viscous on the entry, extremely well balanced, tensile in the mouth, but you can tell that it is keeping 90% of its secrets to itself. If cuts away swiftly on the finish as if to say; that’s your lot. In other words, this represents a long-term Climens that will need considerable cellaring. Tasted April 2016.
