Tasting notes
A special parcel of Merlot on sandy soil, made at Église Clinet. Rude and round and pretty and fine. Very burgundian. Plummy fresh and round. Gentle, easy, approachable. A little diffuse but very charming. Could be a good buy for relatively early drinking.

About the producer

Ch. l'Eglise-Clinet is one of the most unassuming wine estates in Bordeaux. You'd probably drive past it if you didn't have prior knowledge of its vinous output. There's no ostentatious gateway nor sweeping gravel drive.
