The 2014 Clos de Sarpe is deep garnet-purple in color with a lovely cassis and warm black cherries nose with suggestions of cedar chest, tobacco, tapenade and bay leaves plus a waft of potpourri. Full-bodied, it delivers wonderfully pure red and black fruits with a solid line of fine-grained tannins and beautiful freshness, finishing long and earthy. Only 7,000 bottles were produced.
