Currently owned by the French holding company Groupe Artémis, Clos de Tart was originally founded by the Cistercian nuns of Tart Abbey in 1141. The 7.53-hectare estate is wholly owned by Domaine Clos de Tart and therefore classified as a ‘monopole’. The 2008 vintage is evolving beautifully, brimming with energy and class.
- The 2008 Clos de Tart Grand Cru showed well six years ago, but I must confess that this bottle showed a lot of Brettanomyces on the nose, which obscured the fruit and terroir expression. The palate is concentrated and uncharacteristically dense for a 2008, punchy and muscular, missing finesse and very savory on the finish. It's difficult to see where this Clos de Tart is heading, and I reduced my score from six years ago.
