The 2019 Clos René displays impressive clarity and terroir expression on a focused nose of vivid red berry fruit; black truffle and sage aromas come through with time. The palate is well balanced with a fleshy opening and then builds toward quite a substantial, complex, slightly savory and certainly peppery finish. Superb. 2024-2044.
N.B: Clos René is also labelled as "Moulinet-Lasserre" and is exactly the same wine in the bottle under both labels.
The 2019 Clos Rene showed well, although it doesn't have the aromatic purity and vibrancy of the top wines. Giving up plenty of darker cherry and currant-like fruits as well as spice, leather, and loamy earth, it hits the palate with medium to full-bodied richness, beautiful tannins, and just the polished, pure, balanced style that's so prevalent in Pomerol in 2019. Give it a few years and enjoy over the following 15-20.
