Critic Scores, Reviews & Descriptions
A firm, silky red with blackberry character and hints of dark chocolate. It’s medium-bodied with polish and finesse. - James Suckling
The 2020 Clos René showed beautifully, with a pure, elegant style offering lots of cassis and black cherry fruits as well as notes of Christmas spice, flowers, and cedar. Medium to full-bodied and concentrated, with ripe, present tannins, it's very much in the style of this ripe yet fresh, lively vintage. - Jeb Dunnuck
The 2020 Clos René is very intense, almost backward on the nose of blackberry, bilberry, crushed violet and truffle aromas, and even a little blood orange. The palate is medium-bodied with firm, grippy tannins and a bold, dense midpalate. I cannot recall a Clos René as structured as this latest release. Quite peppery toward the finish, which leaves behind a long, tobacco-tinged aftertaste. This is an excellent Clos René but it should be afforded several years’ cellaring once in bottle. - Neal Martin, Vinous Media
Pretty big tannins, old school as is so often the case with Clos René. Plenty of freshness, enjoyable and easy to approach, this is a great value choice for old school Pomerol fans. - Jane Anson, Decanter
