Château Clinet 2016

Château Clinet is one of the most distinctive and renowned estates in Pomerol. Situated on the famous plateau, it benefits from iron-rich clay soils and ancient Merlot vines that give the wines their characteristic depth and opulent elegance.

Since the 1990s, Clinet has experienced an impressive qualitative renaissance: precise vineyard work, selective harvesting and a modern, finely tuned ageing regime produce wines that rank among the most powerful and harmonious in the appellation.

Stylistically, Château Clinet combines rich dark fruit, silky texture and lush concentration with remarkable freshness. Merlot plays the leading role, supported by small proportions of Cabernet Sauvignon and Cabernet Franc that add structure and complexity.

Today Clinet is considered a flagship of Pomerol – an estate that unites tradition, precision and charismatic depth in every bottle.

Bordeaux is one of the world’s most renowned wine regions – a name that has stood for elegance, diversity and ageing potential for centuries. Gravel, clay and limestone soils alternate, allowing fine nuances in the wines that reflect both terroir and craftsmanship.

Bordeaux is typically known for blends in which grape varieties such as Cabernet Sauvignon, Merlot and Cabernet Franc work together harmoniously.

Stylistically, red Bordeaux wines are defined by a balance of fruit, structure and freshness. The white wines – usually made from Sauvignon Blanc, Sémillon and sometimes Muscadelle – range from crisp and citrus-driven to creamy and complex.
