Note di degustazione
This is a highlight of the vintage. Notes of rose, violet, iris and peony lift from the glass, with bright red fruit behind. The palate is silken and supple, with surprising density that complement the floral bouquet. There are ripe, firm tannins – breadth and power that sits alongside the elegance of the wine, and with a satisfying freshness to the acidity too. Long and very complete, an impressive 2024. Aged in 85% new oak, 13.8% alcohol. Blend: 90% Merlot, 10% Cabernet Franc

Based on 90% Merlot and 10% Cabernet Franc, and aging in 80% new barrels, the 2024 Château L'Eglise Clinet is one of the deeper-hued Pomerols in the vintage. It offers rocking aromatics of dark berries, black cherries, graphite, scorched earth, and violets. Medium-bodied on the palate, it brings serious richness, with ripe, round, layered tannins and a great, mineral-laced finish. This is one of the denser, more concentrated wines in the vintage, yet it stays balanced and precise.
Deep garnet-purple colored. After a little shaking, notes of fresh red currants, black cherries, and boysenberries jump from the glass, giving way to touches of spearmint, lilac, and forest floor. The medium-bodied palate is tightly wound and superbly graceful with firm, fine-grained tannins and seamless freshness, finishing long and layered. Nicely done!
The 2024 L'Eglise Clinet reveals a dark, brooding, gently reductive bouquet of incense, dark berries, smoke and oak mingled with floral accents of iris. Medium-bodied, layered and firm, it's built around tangy acids, with a lively mid-palate framed by powdery tannins that assert themselves on the spicy, youthfully chewy finish. This blend of 90% Merlot and 10% Cabernet Franc will mature in 85% new oak.
Informazioni sul produttore
Ch. l'Eglise-Clinet è una delle tenute vinicole più modeste di Bordeaux. Probabilmente ci passeresti davanti in auto se non conoscessi la sua produzione vinicola. Non c'è un ingresso ostentato né un ampio viale di ghiaia.
