Chateau Clinet - Pomerol 2010

RM1,388.00
SKU: AWS202606

Château Clinet, a gem nestled in the renowned Pomerol appellation of Bordeaux, embodies the essence of elegance and finesse in winemaking. With a history that dates back to the 19th century, this historic estate has garnered acclaim for its commitment to crafting wines of exceptional quality and character. Situated on gravelly and clay soils, Clinet's vineyards produce grapes that capture the unique terroir of Pomerol, resulting in wines known for their richness, complexity, and age-worthiness. Renowned for its dedication to traditional methods and meticulous attention to detail, Château Clinet continues to captivate wine enthusiasts with its distinguished wines, each bottle a testament to the estate's enduring legacy and unwavering pursuit of excellence.

Modest but sure of its presence, Clinet lies at one of the highest points upon the renowned plateau at the heart of Pomerol – instantly recognisable by its red shutters and beautiful roses. It is home to one of the oldest vineyards in the appellation, with traces of the vineyard’s existence dating back to 1595. This vineyard is equally famed for offering wine with an incomparable character and quality.

The blend for 2010 is largely dominated by 85% Merlot, with some Cabernet Sauvignon and a small amount of Cabernet Franc also included. Inky/purple-colored, the wine has an exceptionally full-bodied, layered, moderately tannic mouthfeel and impressive power. Loads of melted chocolate/fudge and black fruits galore along with some coffee bean, mocha, as well as some background oak are all present in this big, formidably endowed, masculine style of Pomerol that will take longer to shed its tannin than the 2009. I would give this wine 5-6 years of cellaring and drink it over the following 30+ years.
