Chateau Clarke 2016/18, Listrac-Médoc

Château Clarke owes its uniqueness to its complex and atypical Médoc terroir: 55 hectares in a single parcel, situated mainly on clay-limestone outcrops. Part of the Baron Edmond de Rothschild stable, Château Clarke's terroir is perfect for producing Merlot, despite the fact that it’s a rarity in Médoc. It will come as no surprise that attention to detail is paramount at this estate, and every effort is made to promote sustainability and preserve their local ecosystem. And all this care and attention results in a truly spectacular wine. Expect a dense, powerful wine with silky tannins and flavours of black fruits, menthol, liquorice and oaky hints. It’s perfect with grilled meats or with a cheeseboard.
