More fruit than many Pomerols in 2017 with a solid core of berry and chocolate character. Ripe tannins and a long, subtle finish.

The 2017 Clos du Clocher is deep purple-black in color with a beautiful nose of lilacs, star anise and dark chocolate with a core of crushed blackberries and mulberries. The palate is medium to full-bodied with firm, grainy tannins and plenty of mid-palate muscular fruit, extending into a long, spicy finish.
The 2017 Clos du Clocher was picked 21 September to 4 October. It gently unfolds on the nose with blackberry and wild strawberry scents, a touch of iris and incense that emerges with time. The palate is medium-bodied with supple tannin, a little edginess coming through with aeration. It becomes spicier with black pepper and a touch of brine towards the linear finish. There is moderate length here, not a Clos du Clocher with immense flair but there is ample freshness.
