Description
Chateau Clos du Roy comes from Fronsac, a riverside appellation within Bordeaux known for structured, age-worthy reds. This 2019 is a Bordeaux blend built on dark fruit intensity and oak integration, arriving at 15% alcohol.
The wine opens with cedary oak that gradually reveals vibrant black cherry, warm plum, and ripe blackberry. Tobacco leaf and new leather add textural complexity to the nose. On the palate, it's full-bodied and concentrated, with flavors of black fruit preserves and spice held together by firm, ripe tannins that feel rounded rather than harsh. There's enough freshness to balance the richness, and the finish closes with a cooling minty note. This is a wine built to age, though its current balance and ripeness make it approachable now.

Expert Reviews
Deep garnet-purple colored, the 2019 Clos du Roy has quite an oaky/cedary nose to begin, soon giving way to vibrant black cherries, warm plums and ripe blackberries scents with touches of tobacco leaf and new leather. Full-bodied, big, rich and concentrated (15% alcohol), the palate exudes black fruit preserves and spicy accents, framed by firm, ripe, rounded tannins and plenty of freshness, finishing on a minty note.
