The 2024 Enclos Tourmaline marries fruit intensity with energy, all in a mid-weight style that is quite appealing. Crushed flowers, mocha, herbs, menthol, licorice and dried herbs build effortlessly. Clean saline notes extend the finish nicely. The 2024 is a gorgeous Enclos Tourmaline. 04/2025

The 2024 Enclos Tourmaline has a light but pretty bouquet with black cherry and blueberry fruit, though this lacks the complexity of its peers. The palate is medium-bodied with a bitterness on the entry that is a little distracting but it does attenuate after that. This needs to fill out during its élevage. 04/2025

Robert Parker/Wine Advocate

A blend of 96% Merlot and 4% Cabernet Franc, the 2024 Enclos Tourmaline offers up a somber, dark bouquet of licorice, gentian, spices and smoke mingled with delicate oaky notes. Medium-bodied, firm and compact, it has good depth at the core framed by brittle tannins and a lively, energetic finish. 04/2025

Earthy red and black fruits, spicy wood, and liquid violet/floral notes all emerge from the 2024 Enclos Tourmaline. This riper, medium to full-bodied, straight-up sexy wine has plenty of mid-palate depth, a supple, layered mouthfeel, and outstanding length. 05/2025

Good depth for this difficult year, and the close-knit tannins are really attractive. Racy red and dark berries and plums, with a medium to full body and a very juicy, medium-long finish. 96% merlot and 4% cabernet franc. 04/2025
