Jeb Dunnuck: 93 Points
The 2020 Clos Marsalette is clearly outstanding, with terrific red and black fruits as well as some earthy truffle and spicy, tobacco-driven aromatics. Based on 58% Cabernet Sauvignon, 40% Merlot, and the rest Cabernet Franc, this medium to full-bodied, silky, textured 2020 is going to over-deliver over the coming 15+ years.
Wine Spectator: 93 Points
Very sleek and tightly focused, with a long, thin, piercing iron note through the middle of a core of red currant and loganberry fruit, all flanked in turn by subtle alder and red tea. Flashes a mouthwatering edge on the finish, too. Cabernet Sauvignon, Merlot and Cabernet Franc. Best from 2025 through 2033.
Vinous: 92 Points
The 2020 Clos Marsalette is plump, juicy and super-expressive, right out of the gate. Succulent dark cherry and plum fruit open first, followed by hints of lavender, cloves and mocha. Forward and lush, with silky soft tannins, Clos Marsalette is a winner in 2020. It will be impossible to resist young.
Wine Advocate: 90 Points
The 2020 Clos Marsalette offers up rich aromas of dark berries, cherries, smoked meats and rich spices, followed by a medium to full-bodied, broad and fleshy palate that's supple and enveloping, with a generous core of fruit and a savory, carnal finish.
