Jeb Dunnuck: "Based on 50% Merlot and 50% Cabernet Franc from just outside the village of Saint-Émilion, the 2024 Château Clos Saint-Julien reveals darker berries, crushed stone, graphite, and hints of leafy herbs. Medium-bodied on the palate, it shows terrific minerality, refined tannins, and a solid finish."

Lisa Perrotti-Brown: "Deep garnet-purple colored. A touch closed to start, slowly unfurling with red plums and blackberry notes, plus hints of sautéed herbs and mossy tree bark. The light to medium-bodied palate is savory and soft with a lively backbone and mineral-laced finish."
