The Château Clinet is located on the summit of the Pomerol plateau, cradle of all the prestigious crus of this Terroir.
The name "Clinet" is spelled "Cliné" on Belleyme's map dating from 1785. The name may come from the Old French "Cliner" meaning gentle slope, on which this vineyard is planted from the famous plateau of Pomerol.
The vineyard extends over 8.5 hectares of deep old gravel with a subsoil rich in iron dross. The vineyard, which has an average age of 40 years, is planted with Merlot noir for 85%, Cabernet Sauvignon 10% and Cabernet franc 5%.
The grapes are hand-picked and sorted in the winery, and the wine is aged in 80% new oak barrels for 16 to 22 months.
Illustrious appellation of Rive droite, Pomerol is where Château Clinet dominates an eleven-hectare vineyard. Vinified with excellence always in mind, the wines charm with their finesse, refinement and smoothness. This deep ruby 2017 La robe offers a complex nose of ripe fruit such as morello cherry, redcurrant and blackberry. Floral notes of lilac can also be detected. On the palate, it's elegant and flavorful, balanced with plenty of roundness. The very pure finish promises good ageing potential.
