Clos Saint Jean is run by brothers Vincent and Pascal Maurel and is considered amongst the very finest estates in Châteauneuf-du-Pape with the majority of their vineyards located in the iconic sub-zone of Le Crau. The limited production Deus Ex Machina is perhaps their most celebrated cuvée and is made from a blend of old vine Grenache (60%) from Le Crau and Mourvedre (40%) from Bois-Dauphin. The 2016 vintage was absolutely brilliant, and this is a profoundly complex and concentrated release, unfurling in the glass with seductive notes of black fruits, garrigue, liquorice, olive tapenade and stoney minerality. For all its immensity it is remarkably well-balanced and displays exceptional levity and energy, suggesting 10-15 years in the cellar will be a breeze.
96 Vinous
Vivid bright-rimmed ruby. Exotic, highly perfumed aromas of red and blue fruit preserves, candied flowers, incense and Indian spices show outstanding definition and mineral lift. Fleshy, alluringly sweet and expansive in the mouth, offering deeply concentrated raspberry, cherry cola, lavender pastille and fruitcake flavors that show uncanny delicacy for their power. Smooth, spicy and penetrating on the impressively persistent finish, which is given shape by suave, slow-building, deftly interwoven tannins.Josh Raynolds1st December 2019
