The 2017 Clos Marsalette is ripe, bold and juicy, with quite a bit of raciness and more overt ripeness than I remember seeing en primeur. At the same time, there is plenty of floral and savory lift from the Cabernets. Sweet red plum, mint, sage, tobacco and cedar are all laced together in this super-expressive, inviting, mid-weight Pessac-Léognan Graves from Stephan von Neipperg. This is such a pretty wine. Tasted two times.

The 2017 Clos Marsalette has a well defined bouquet but it just lacks a bit of fruité. The palate is medium-bodied with dry tannins, quite austere with a rather dry finish. I usually enjoy this Pessac-Léognan however, I just think this is a rare miss.
