Château Clinet is a boutique Pomerol property that produces one of the most sought-after wines in the region. Planted with Merlot, Cabernet Sauvignon and Cabernet Franc, the 9-hectare estate produces wines which are concentrated and rich but well-balanced. The 2005 vintage boasts an impressive nose of blueberries, violets, truffles, subtle wood, and cold steel. On the palate, the wine is full-bodied and multi-layered, with ample acidity. Drinking well now and until 2030+.
- Good full ruby. Sexy aromas of black raspberry liqueur, violet, chocolate, mocha and smoky oak. Dense, fat and large-scaled, with a layered texture and compelling sweetness of dark berry fruit. Very smooth if currently a bit youthfully monolithic. Finishes with substantial mouthcoating tannins that arrive late, allowing the chewy chocolate and mocha flavors to expand and linger. This will age on its alcohol and tannins, not its rather low acidity. Elevage should bring greater detail.
