From a growing season that started cool and finished hot, the 1966 Château Clos de Sarpe is a more focused wine that has lively acidity as well as perfumed, incredibly complex notes of dried tobacco, licorice, chocolate, and Asian spices. Medium-bodied, beautifully balanced, completely mature, and seamless, with resolved tannins, it's just a beautiful, classy, complex Saint-Emilion that shows the singular style of this domaine. This stunning wine isn't going to any better, yet certainly has a gradual evolution going forward. - Jeb Dunnuck
