2017 | Clarendelle | Rouge 5L

Medium-bodied, linear and focused with fine tannins and a delicious finish.

Reviews:

• Wine Advocate: Medium to deep garnet-purple colored, the Clarendelle 2017 Bordeaux is scented of ripe plums, spice cake and cloves with hints of dusty earth and pencil lead. Medium-bodied, it delivers plenty of juicy black fruits and soft tannins with a refreshing backbone and a beautifully pure finish.

• James Suckling: Fresh nose with berries and chocolate with hints of hazelnuts. Sandalwood. Medium-bodied, linear and focused with fine tannins and a delicious finish.

Producer Information

Clarendelle is a Bordeaux wine brand created by the Dillon family and is part of the Clarence Dillon Wines group. It makes four wines from the classic Bordeaux varieties, chiefly Merlot for its red wine and Sémillon for its white. The brand was established in 2005 by the Dillon family who also own other high-profile Bordeaux estates, most notably Château Haut-Brion and La Mission Haut-Brion. The wines of Clarendelle are all designated from the greater Bordeaux appellation and include a red, a dry white, a rosé and a dessert white made from fruit grown in several viticultural subregions. The red grapes – Merlot, Cabernet Sauvignon and Cabernet Franc – are sourced from the Saint-Émilion, Haut-Médoc and Pessac-Léognan regions and include fruit from the other Domaine Clarence Dillon estates. The white grapes – Sémillon, Muscadelle and Sauvignon Blanc – come mostly from Graves and Pessac-Léognan. A Pessac-Léognan-designated red wine has also been made in select vintages.
