The wines of Clinet are rich, supple, sensuous, powerful and in the best vintages, offer floral, chocolate, and spicy flavors. The wine ages well, developing sensuous textures and aromatic complexities. An immaculate wine with pristine blackberries and dark plums as well as fresh, earthy nuances and dark crushed violets. An upright palate with lightly peppery dark berries and plums. The inflection of cabernet here makes for an impressively powerful wine that still exudes Pomerol’s suave, seductive charm. Chalky, seamless tannins. Super fresh.

Description
Chateau Clinet is one of the oldest vineyards in Pomerol. Old maps unearthed by the estate show that vines were planted in 1785. From there, the vineyard became the property of the Constant Family, before it passed to the Arnaud family. The Arnaud’s had good taste in wine. At the same time, they were also owners of the famed Bordeaux wine property, Petrus! Following the Arnaud’s involvement, from 1900 to 1991, Chateau Clinet became the property of the Audy family. They were best known as Bordeaux negociants. When the managing director Jean Michel Arcaute arrived in the late 1970s, Chateau Clinet began producing some of the best wine in their history within a few short years.
