Clos DE L'ORATOIRE
Grand cru classé
- 2022 Futures
- Saint-Émilion
As well maintained as Canon-La Gaffelière (same owner), under the direction of Mr. Derenoncourt, Clos de l'Oratoire offers practically the same fullness and intensity for half the price.
Bettane & Desseauve : 93/100 « Plus de cabernet franc dans ce millésime donne un éclat nouveau et de la fraîcheur dans le tannin de ce qui est sans doute le meilleur vin de l'histoire de la propriété. »
Le Point : 17-17,5/20
Martin : 90-92/100 « It has a nicely composed, floral bouquet with red cherries, crushed stramberry and orange rind. Fine delineation. The palate is medium-bodied and well balanced, with a gentle grip on the entry, grainy tannins and a lively and overly peppery finish that lingers in the mouth. More structured than the d'Aiguilhe [same owner]. »
