Description

The Château Clarke estate is in the southern part of the Médoc within the Listrac-Médoc appellation. Its inland location is far from the Gironde estuary in the middle of the limestone plateau. The property has a private, protected setting.

A distinctive feature of the estate's clay-limestone soil is its remarkable drought resistance. The nearness of the Atlantic Ocean gives it a cool freshness that is echoed in the wine's bright bouquet. The terroir is very well suited to growing merlot grapes in a region where cabernet sauvignon is traditionally king. Thus Château Clarke is typical of the Médoc, but in an entirely original way.

Tasting

Eye : A beautiful purple colour with a purple border.

Nose : Intense and complex, the nose is dominated by fresh fruit flavours (blackcurrant, black cherry) mixed with fine woody notes. When shaken, a minty, fresh side develops, accompanied by a small touch of liquorice.

Mouth : The attack is frank and round. It gives way to a fat, serious palate, with a dense and velvety tannic structure, accompanied by a balanced natural acidity, which gives this wine a beautiful freshness.

It will go remarkably well with grilled meat or meat in sauce such as lamb, poultry or game (partridge and pheasant). More specifically, it will go perfectly with a veal chop with porcini mushrooms from our mountains.
