Château Lavabre - La Closerie rouge 2017
92-95/100
Robert Parker
"The 2017 Closerie features notes of oak, cedar, and cooking spices, along with a blend of crushed pepper and ripe blueberries. Full-bodied and supple, with an almost creamy texture, it is long and velvety, while retaining a welcome sense of freshness." (Wine Advocate - Joe Czerwinski)
