Lots of Strawberry, forest floor and hints of flowers all emerge from the 2015 Château Clarke and it's medium-bodied, elegant and balanced, with fine tannin and good acidity. This charming Listrac has lots to love and should drink nicely for 7-8 years.
Mid crimson with ruby rim. Dark and savoury on the nose, dark fruit and dark chocolate. Dry, fine texture but a little short on fruit to fill out the middle. (JH)
Very dark. Fragrant with sappy meaty notes on the palate. Really quite demanding and astringent on the end but a good start. A game of two halves. (JR)
