DEC98 Absolutely bursting with blue and red fruits, the concentration is deceptive here, as it starts out juicy and full of air, but after a few minutes in the glass you start to feel the weight and the texture, and this turns into an extremely serious wine with real tannic hold. Gorgeous savoury finish, as you get so often in the best Burgundies, where weightlessness is such a brilliant veil to the power behind. 55% whole cluster. Drinking Window 2020 – 2032
96PTS Rich dense purple, just on 14% alcohol which Clos de Tart can carry. The colour glows and the nose has more character than for the first two wines. Indeed the bouquet opens out with more time in the glass, becoming richer, glossier and smoother on the palate too. Cherries in kirsch come to mind, with some red fruit notes mixed in with the black. There is both firm acidity as well as tannins. Clos de Tart in a warm vintage is a muscular wine. I cannot fault the concen- tration, and the tannins will work very well in the long term. Tasted: November 2019. (JASPER MORRIS, MW insideburgundy.com, 06/01/20) 
VIN93-95 The 2018 Clos de Tart Grand Cru was picked from August 30, the earliest on record, with some previously included parcels now rel- egated to the Premier Cru. With approximately 60% whole-bunch fruit and matured in around 80% new oak (this figure will probably decrease in the future), this has quite a floral bouquet with pressed violets and rose petals infusing the red berry fruit. There is just a hint of balsamic in the background. The palate is medium-bodied with sappy red fruit on the entry and fine acidity. Quite saline and spicy in the mouth, delivering satisfying depth toward the finish. This is a very capable Clos de Tart, though one that signposts even better vintages in the future as various improvements come into play.
Winemaker Notes: Lovely deep colour with a complex nose of generous red berries, poached plum, cherries and some dark fruits after aeration, as well as floral notes of rose and violet. On the palate this wine shows it is from a warm vintage as is powerful, intense and fleshy, whilst remaining incredibly elegant with soft and silky tannins.
