Owned by Jean-Baptiste Audy, Clos du Clocher is a small estate in Pomerol that, since the sublime 2009 and 2010 vintages, has been consistently producing excellent wines and continues to fly somewhat under the radar. From the excellent 2015 vintage, this blend of 81% Merlot and 19% Cabernet Sauvignon is wonderfully ripe and intense, offering up notes of plum, black cherry, truffle and wild herbs. A delightfully generous yet superbly well-balanced example of Right Bank Bordeaux with excellent ageing potential.

The 2015 Clos du Clocher is a powerful, unctuous Pomerol. Black fruit, chocolate, leather and licorice are some of the signatures. The 2015 is not especially refined nor subtle, but it has turned out to be a bit more complete than the barrel sample suggested. Antonio Galloni1st February 2018

The 2015 Clos du Clocher is a blend of 81% Merlot and 19% Cabernet Franc that was matured in 65% new oak (15% 'vinification intégrale'). It has an intense bouquet with generous, vivacious dark cherry, cassis and black truffle aromas that do not hold back from the glass. The palate is medium-bodied with silky smooth tannin, very nicely poised, quite weighty in the mouth with fine backbone on the finish, suggesting that this Clos du Clocher is a long-term contender.
