Description
1995 Chateau Clinet
This is fully mature while remaining vigorous and fresh. Lots to like here for old-school Bordeaux thrill seekers like me. Drink
Critical Acclaim
96 Robert Parker’s Wine Advocate
Another extraordinary wine made in a backward vin de garde style, the 1995 Clinet represents the essence of Pomerol. The blackberry and cassis liqueur-like fruit of this wine is awesome. The color is saturated black/purple, and the wine is extremely full-bodied and powerful with layers of glycerin-imbued fruit, massive richness, plenty of licorice, blackberry, and cassis flavors, full body, and a thick, unctuous texture. This is a dense, impressive offering from administrator Jean-Michel Arcaute. This wine should continue to improve for another 10-25 years. Anticipated maturity: 2006-2025.
92 Wine Spectator
Wild aromas of forest fruits, coffee and toasted oak follow through to a rich and decadent palate with a full body and a long chewy finish. This still needs time.
