2020
Clos Junet (St. Émilion Grand Cru)
Violets, toasty oak, spice and ripe dark plums come to the surface in the nose. Medium-bodied, supple and juicy with a tinge of salty tannins and soft fruits in the fresh, red berry finish. This is quite nice. You can enjoy this on release, or age it for more complexity. 91-93 Pts 1,293 Views Tasted May 20, 2021 |

Clos Junet (St. Émilion Grand Cru)
Medium-bodied with an oaky note on the nose and mouth, the wine is fruity and fresh, with a bright, red berry and green olive finish. This should be a bit better in a few years when the oak integrates. 87-89 Pts 3,246 Views Tasted Jun 8, 2020 |

Clos Junet (St. Émilion Grand Cru)
Thyme, smoke, underbrush, espresso and red fruits open the nose of this medium-bodied, soft, juicy, fresh wine, finishing with a jolt of licorice, dark cocoa, black cherry and plum. This is showing better in bottle than in barrel.

Clos Junet (St. Émilion Grand Cru)
Medium/full bodied, polished, soft textured and fruity, there is a nice blend of oak, licorice and black cherry here, with black raspberry notes in the finish. This is a nice little discovery for me. The wine was produced using a blend of 70% Merlot and 30% Cabernet Franc. - 88-90 Pts 3,658 Views Tasted Nov 15, 2016 |
