Clos René 2009 is a full-bodied Bordeaux blend originating from the Pomerol appellation. This wine exemplifies the Garde family`s commitment to traditional winemaking since acquiring the estate over a century ago. The vineyard spans 18 hectares, primarily dedicated to Merlot (approximately 70%), with notable contributions from Cabernet Franc and a small percentage of Malbec. With a focus on understated complexity, Clos René exhibits potential for further development in the bottle. The estate remains a significant yet often overlooked producer in the region.
90 Robert Parker
As usual, the 2009 Clos Rene is well-made, but just doesn’t hit the top echelon. It reveals a dense plum/ruby color, lots of sweet black cherry and plum-like fruit, lush, heady, medium to full-bodied flavors, silky tannins, and a robust, exuberant, fat finish. Drink it over the next 10-15 years. (Tasted once.) - Robert M. Parker, Jr.

Good deep ruby-red. Complex nose melds black plum, musky chocolate, licorice and aromatic herbs (no doubt from the malbec component in this wine). Dense, ripe and a bit chunky, with rich flavors similar to the aromas and very good palate coverage. The finish features fairly firm tannins and notes of damp earth and licorice.
