Clos du Clocher is a small, family-owned wine producer located in the Pomerol appellation of Bordeaux. The estate was founded in 1924 by Jean-Baptiste Audy, and it has been in the Audy family ever since. Clos du Clocher covers approximately 4.6 hectares planted to 70% Merlot and 30% Cabernet Franc. The 2020 vintage of Clos du Clocher is still a young wine, and it will benefit from a few more years in the cellar.

Sporting a deep purple-black color, the 2020 Clos du Clocher gallops out of the glass with energetic scents of crushed blueberries, boysenberries and plum preserves, plus touches of ground cloves, cedar chest and damp soil. The medium to full-bodied palate delivers beautifully pure, well-defined black fruits with a fine-grained texture and seamless freshness, finishing earthy. - Lisa Perrotti-Brown
94 Jane Anson
The 2020 from Clos du Clocher opens with an array of beautifully exotic fruits on the nose, with little fading tobacco notes from the oak, alongside black cherry, liquorice and currant. Then on the palate I find a delicious texture, polished and seamless, with dark and pure fruits supported by very linear tannins and fresh acidity, pure and balanced. A long and tannin-infused vintage, with a brilliant length, still entirely wrapped up in tannic grip. A wine of great potential, and not one on which you should be pulling the corks now. Give it a decade, as a minimum.Chris Kissack30th July 2025

The 2020 Clos du Clocher was picked early to harness the power, freshness and violet scents. That certainly comes through on the nose, one of Bourotte's more fragrant and floral incense infusing the opulent black fruit, though it retains admirable delineation. The palate is medium-bodied with plush tannins, a dash of white pepper on the entry, finely balanced though with good backbone and grip towards the finish. This has developed well in barrel and contains a persistent peppery aftertaste. Neal Martin8th February 2023
