Château Clinet 2017 is dressed in a beautiful dark purple colour with ruby tints.
Shy on the first nose, it gradually opens up to aeration and reveals a rich and charming bouquet of small, ripe red and black fruits as well as floral notes, touches of wood and smoke and a subtle hint of minerality.
On the palate, Château Clinet 2017 offers a moderately full-bodied attack and a supple, round mid-palate. The aromas of red and black fruits are concentrated and supported by a straight and granular tannic line. The juicy fruits grow and evolve in the mouth, bringing incredible tension and powerful aroma to the blend before ending with a deliciously fruity and mineral finish.
