Reviews & Scores
Here the aromas are more elegant and more complex but not necessarily riper with high-toned red Pinot fruit and an attractive dried herb note that sits atop earthy yet fine and refined medium full flavors that deliver outstanding detail and delineation. This is a classically styled wine with prominent but ripe acidity and dusty tannins that have just enough phenolic maturity. This will be one of the more elegant and refined vintages of Clos des Lambrays and the balance is such that it should age well over the moderate term. - BH

Good medium red. Rich, deep aromas of dark fruits, baking spices, chocolate, roasted herbs and minerals. Big, lush, creamy and consistent; quite full in the middle for a 2004. Supple, rich and ripe, finishing with very fine tannins and terrific subtle persistence. I had the early impression that this is as strong as Clos de Tart in 2004. - VM

A terrific 2004, with loads of sweet black cherry, raspberry, rose and sandalwood notes. As this intensifies across the palate, the mineral element becomes evident. The structure is well-integrated, and this ends with energy and freshness. - WS
