94 Points - James Suckling:  Dark earth funk offers a decadent touch to the mossy, lightly balsamic aromas of apple pith, mushrooms and wild berries. There is a very good mid-palate and fine tannins. Juicy, tense and silky. Drink now or hold.

93 Points - Vinous:  The 2020 Le Clos de Pallus is curvy and sure of itself while remaining lithe. It is such a welcoming style, all silken and caressing on the palate. While ripe and assured, this remains elegant and sleek. A note of blackcurrant fruit lingers on the long and supple finish.
