A generous friend opened this at a small gathering and I think I was the only person there who even knew what it was. This was my first time drinking the “Clos du Temple”. The wine pours a pale pink-gold color with no signs of sediment or gas. On the nose, stone fruits and forest berries; apricots, peaches and strawberries. There’s also honeysuckle and stony minerals. On the palate, the wine is dry with no tannins. Acid is medium+. Confirming the notes from the nose. The finish is long, fresh and juicy. There’s a luxurious texture to this wine. Well done, if not exactly soul stirring. I guess only three cases of this were allocated to the state. — a year ago

Just a ridiculously good value. I really dig this co-op. Saturated in color, with air the nose reveals rich, oozing dark berries, smoky campfire ashes, savory cured beef, crushed stone. In the mouth, it’s intensely flavored but well balanced. savory, clingy, minerally (in the bloody sense), but with a nicely voluptuous mouthfeel, tannins abundant but very soft. Love it. — 5 months ago

Dusty patina (like walking through a Japanese temple) pomegranate and cranberry. Mixed white and black peppercorns. Uplifting acid (in a good way) that super complements food. TBL — 3 years ago
