2020 Chateau l’Enclos, Pomerol, France (750ml)

TASTING NOTES:

Aromas of spiced dark fruit, toasted walnuts, cocoa, leafy herbs and light tobacco. Full bodied withan array of ripe, juicy tannins. Structured and layered with vivid dark berries and a firm, lingeringfinish. Try after 2025.

– James Suckling, 94 pts.

Full of bright fruit, this wine is juicy and structured. Richness comes from impressive blackberry flavors allied to concentration. The wine should be ready from 2026.

The 2020 LEnclos is quite soft and understated. Bright red-toned fruit, mint, cinnamon, bloodorange, tobacco, incense all take shape in this pretty, accessible Merlot. The 2020 is not terriblycomplex nor structured, but it is both delicious and approachable, which makes it a fine choice fordrinking now and over the next 15-20 years.

– Vinous, 92 pts.
