Clos du Clocher Pomerol 2005

Delivering prime Pomerol character, cocoa dusted black cherry fruits, olive pit, peony flowers and grilled patisserie. This was the moment that a buzz was beginning to build around Clos du Clocher, and you can see why, fully benefitting from a sunny and hot summer, without too many stresses through the growing season. You can enjoy this today, but there is zero question that if you come back in 20 or 30 years it will still be giving pleasure. The first vintage that current owner Jean Baptiste Bourotte was entirely responsible for, taking over from his father Pierre. 55% new oak for ageing.
