Silky yet concentrated, Chateau Clinet 2023 layers ripe plum and dark cherry fruit with notes of cocoa, graphite and sweet spice, all wrapped in polished, powdery tannins. The wine feels composed and modern in style, with vibrant acidity giving lift and a long, suave finish touched by herbs and floral tones. A poised, muscular Pomerol that should gain in complexity with patience.

Château Clinet is the estate’s flagship Pomerol grand vin, a Merlot-dominant blend (typically around 75–85% Merlot with Cabernet Sauvignon) from old vines on the highest part of the Pomerol plateau, rooted in clay- and gravel-rich soils that give both power and finesse. Known for its deep color, opulent black and red fruit, floral and cocoa notes, and polished but structured tannins, it is a concentrated, ageworthy Right Bank Bordeaux that ranks among the top wines of the appellation.
