Decanter: Bright and expressive nose, full of perfumed roses, smells gorgeous. Round and filling, chewy tannins give a really lively and massy expression but with cool liquorice, wet stone and slate aspects around the side. It’s calm, certainly not as acidic and lively as some, but I love the confidence and completeness of this wine. Yummy and just really moreish. Excellent structure and extraction without being too much."

James Suckling: Medium- to full-bodied and elegant, with delineated fruit, subtle salt and precise tannins. Refined and tactful."

Falstaff: Tiefdunkles Rubingranat, opaker Kern, violette Reflexe, dezente Randaufhellung. Zarter Edelholztouch, reife Brombeeren, schwarze Kirschen, feine Kräuterwürze, einladendes Bukett. Komplex, saftig und extraktsüß, reife Tannine, feiner Nougat, elegant und anhaftend, sicheres Reifepotenzial."

Lisa Perrotti-Brown: Deep garnet-purple colored, the 2025 Clos des Jacobins needs a lot of shaking and swirling to wake up notes of fresh blackberries, cedar, and crushed rocks, leading to fragrant, underlying hints of raspberries and garrigue. Medium- to full-bodied, the palate is chock-full of black and red berry flavors with a firm, lightly chewy texture and a lively line, finishing long and minerally."

The Wine Cellar Insider: While the bouquet of flowers is what you initially notice in the perfume, you also find, cocoa, black cherries, licorice, and plums. Medium-bodied, elegant, fresh, sweet, and fruity, the finish continues along the same vein with is plummy, chocolate oriented finish. Drink from 2029-2050."

Vinum: Expressiv mit Kirschen, Kräuter, Cassis, Menthol im Duft; gradliniger Gaumen, reife, dabei knackige Frucht, samtene Tannine umhüllen; im Abgang dunkelfruchtig, hinterlässt ein Mundgefühl, das sich wie lecken an einem Salzstein anfühlt. Ein sehr mineralischer Clos des Jacobins."

Jeb Dunnuck: A ripe, dense, powerful Saint-Emilion, the 2025 Clos Des Jacobins reveals blackberry, darker cherries, graphite, and chocolaty herb notes on the nose. It's medium to full-bodied on the palate, with ripe tannins, ample mid-palate depth, and a great finish."
