The 2023 L'Enclos is deep garnet-purple in color. Notes of black cherries, boysenberries, and redcurrants pop from the glass, followed by hints of cardamom and tar. The medium-bodied palate is soft, juicy, and plush, with nice rounded tannins and an earthy finish. The blend is 75% Merlot, 20% Cabernet Franc, and 5% Malbec.

Composed of 88% Merlot, 10% Cabernet Franc, and 2% Malbec, the 2022 L'Enclos is deep garnet-purple in color. Notes of stewed plums, dried cherries, and fruitcake spill from the glass with hints of tar and dried sage. The medium-bodied palate is a little flat and dull, with chewy tannins and an abrupt finish.

The 2020 L'Enclos is medium to deep garnet-purple in color. After considerable swirling, notes of baked black plums and blueberry compote begin to emerge, followed by touches of dried lavender, crushed rocks, and black truffles. The full-bodied palate is generously fruited, with a sold backbone of firm yet velvety tannins and seamless freshness, finishing with impressive length. This needs time!

Deep garnet-purple in color, the 2019 L'Enclos has a nose of damp soil, charcoal, and cedar, leading to a core of redcurrant preserves and juicy blackberries with a touch of dried herbs. The medium to full-bodied palate is chewy and savory, with appealing freshness and an herbal lift on the finish.

L’Enclos 2018 is deep garnet purple in color. It gives up notes of Morello cherries, blackberry preserves, and roses, plus hints of tree bark, cracked pepper, and nutmeg. Medium to full-bodied, the palate is firm and chewy, with a bit of a dip in the mid-palate and a hard finish.
