Spring’s extreme weather conditions caused concern that with such excessive heat this would be a tricky vintage to manage.
In this particular climatic context, Château CLINET adapted its cultural strategy to make sure of an even ripening of the grapes.
Summer was without excessively hot weather which helped the maturity to proceed homogeneously.
The harvest was the earliest ever recorded at the property. It began on September 7, and finished with the legendary 75 year-old vines on the Pomerol plateau.
Château CLINET continued its policy of picking plot by plot, at perfect phenolic ripeness, spreading out the 7 harvesting days along a time-line of 19 days.
Chateau Clinet 2011 displays an ink-purple colour.
Very exuberant and enchanting on the nose, it reveals aromas of wild raspberries and strawberries, together with blackberries and plums in syrup, mingling subtly with essence of vanilla and liquorice.
Silky and intense on the palate, its soft texture coats the freshly picked wild fruits sprinkled with spices.
