Pavolino Chianti Bottle:1 93 Points James SucklingThe vineyard of Le Clous lies close to the top of the slope in Meursault neighbouring onto les Narvaux and Vireuils, so as you would expect it has the typical notes of Meursault but with good freshness. It has a soft, buttery nose with some notes of hazelnuts. On the palate it is fresh yet has some buttery notes, good rounded fruit and it finishes with a long and true aftertaste. A great wine that is good to drink now but should keep for 5 to 10 years
