Merchant Review NR
Intensely and invitingly red-fruited on the nose, this is open and welcoming, with cedar and rocky minerality. The palate is firm and assertive, with dark-berried sous bois and brambly spice. It is gratifyingly dense, with the nimble-footed elegance and freshness to wear it lightly. This, as in previous vintages, comprises the young vines of the Clos. The three constituent plots for the 2016 Forge de Tart were planted in 1999, 2005 and 2011. As for Clos de Tart 2016 itself, this has 80% new oak and 20% one year-old. It was 100% destemmed in 2016. Fewer than 3,000 bottles have been made.
