Château Clinet
Pomerol Red Bordeaux Blend
Closed up at first but softened over time. Definitely worth a decant and patience.

Jul 21st, 2016Monolithic, at a closed stage, almost impenetrable. Charcoal, roasted plum, burnt leather. Needs a long decant.

Feb 21st, 2016Still a muscular wine but relaxes after a short decant when available robust wine becomes elegant. Great drinking window. Tobacco, leather, currant.
