Clinet Pomerol, 2012

Clinet Pomerol 2012 is a polished Bordeaux from one of Pomerol’s most respected names, offering the depth and finesse that have made the appellation so sought after. Known for its expressive Merlot-led style, it reflects the elegance and concentration that define top wines from the Right Bank.

Tasting Notes
In the glass, it typically shows a deep ruby-garnet colour with appealing intensity. The nose is layered and refined, often bringing together dark plum, blackberry, cedar, graphite, violets, and subtle earthy spice. On the palate, expect a supple yet structured wine with ripe black fruit, silky tannins, and a balanced core of freshness. The finish is persistent and harmonious, and while it can be enjoyed now, it should continue to develop beautifully over the next several years, gaining even more complexity with time.

Production
Produced in Pomerol, Bordeaux, where clay and gravel soils help shape wines of richness, texture, and aromatic depth. The vintage 2012 demanded careful vineyard work and selective harvesting to achieve full ripeness, with vinification likely aimed at preserving purity of fruit, structure, and the polished character for which Clinet is known.

Food & Serving
This wine pairs beautifully with roasted lamb, beef tenderloin, duck breast, game birds, and mushroom-based dishes. Serve at around 16–18°C, and decant for 1–2 hours if drinking young to allow the wine to open fully.

Producer
Château Clinet is one of Pomerol’s standout estates, long admired for producing wines of power, elegance, and exceptional consistency. The property has earned a strong reputation both in Bordeaux and internationally, and is widely regarded as one of the benchmark producers in the appellation.
