Clos de la Cure 2010

Saint-Emilion Grand Cru|Red wine

4.2/5 (13 customers)

Rating: RVF 17/20
Clos de la Cure is a wine offering lovely expressions of red and black fruits, accompanied by delicate oak notes. A red wine that is full-bodied and supple on the palate, with high-quality tannins that are still a little firm but will mellow with time. A very indulgent, fruity finish. A Grand Cru that is already enjoyable to drink, but it is best to wait a little longer. Well worth discovering!
