Cyprès is not merely a pre-determined second wine from a blend of lesser plots. Rather, Cyprès is made from a second round of picking in the Climens vineyard in Barsac and select barrels that didn’t quite fit the profile of that year’s Grand Vin. Considering yields for the first wine are regularly as low as 7hl/ha, it is no surprise that Cyprès also has great richness and power that reflects the quest for perfection undertaken by the Climens team.

92/100 - The 2010 Cypres de Climens is an outstanding second wine from Berenice Lurton and her team. It has a very clean and fresh bouquet with lanolin, dried honey and peach notes that are nicely entwined with the botrytis character. The palate is rounded with viscous honeyed fruit, a fine line of acidity and impressive volume and persistency on the caressing mellifluous finish. This is very seductive and as good, if not better, than many of its grand cru peers. Drink now-2028. - Neal Martin, Wine Advocate

17/20 - Rich and opulent. A very nice package. Sweet wine. Clean with drive. Some floral character and some evident botrytis. - Jancis Robinson MW

On the nose, full of classic Barsac aromas of apricot, white flowers, and acacia honey with hints of marmalade and marzipan.

On the palate, soft and rounded with excellent texture, richness and length alongside a great acidity that cuts through the sweetness.

Drink now - 2030.
