Clos du Roy 2016
Tasting notes
The Clos du Roy has an earthy, briary-scented bouquet with great definition and personality. The palate is medium-bodied with fine tannin, good body and is very well balanced, the finish offering blackberry and bilberry notes with a touch of sea salt. This is a great Fronsac wine at an excellent price.
