Clos du Clocher 2005 Red (Pomerol)

A big success, this a wine that manages to combine the ripeness of Merlot fruit from 2005 with impressive tannins and power and still have structure and acidity. This should age well over 10 years.  — R.V.  (6/1/2008)

Clos du Clocher 2004 Red (Pomerol)

A properly velvet-textured Pomerol, showing some of the richness of the Merlot in 2004. This is a well-balanced, intensely rich wine, the black plum fruit flavors powering through the tannins, and with a good lift of fresh acidity to finish.  — R.V.  (6/1/2007)

Clos du Clocher 2006 Barrel sample Red (Pomerol)

  • Online Exclusive
85—87 Clos du Clocher. Pomerol. Too much wood for the good of the fruit, the spice and the toast leave the wood behind.  — R.V.  (12/31/2009)
