Château Clos René - Pomerol - Red - 2017 :

 

Château Clos René: A Classic Pomerol Gem

Clos René is one of Pomerol’s most established estates, a historic family property on Bordeaux’s Right Bank celebrated for its reliable quality and traditional, elegant winemaking. It provides exceptional value for a Pomerol, standing as a firm favourite among discerning connoisseurs who appreciate consistency over celebrity.

Tasting Profile: Richness, Structure, and Finesse

This red Bordeaux is a sophisticated blend, predominantly Merlot, which delivers a rich, velvety texture, complemented by Cabernet Franc for structure and a dash of Malbec for complexity. The style is classic, restrained, and built for graceful aging in your cellar.

• Colour: Deep, intense ruby hue.
• Nose: An engaging aroma profile of ripe forest fruits (blackcurrant, plum), layered with subtle notes of coffee, licorice, and the signature hint of earthy truffle that develops with bottle age.
• Palate: Full and generous on the entry, giving way to a rich mid-palate supported by fine-grained, svelte tannins. The wine boasts impressive length and a juicy, focused finish that is both elegant and gourmand.

Pairing & Enjoyment

To best enjoy the depth of Clos René, serve at around 16°C. While enjoyable young with an hour’s decant, this wine is built to mature and will reward patient cellaring for many years.
