Chateau Clinet 2016 Pomerol
Tasted on four separate occasions, the 2016 Château Clinet is another brilliant wine from this estate. Showing slightly more freshness and purity than the 2015, its saturated purple color is followed by a thrilling array of crème de cassis, graphite, ground herbs, and a terrific sense of minerality. Deep, full-bodied, with building tannins, and a magical sense of purity and elegance paired with real density and depth, it needs short term cellaring and will keep for three decades.
Lisa Perrotti Brown am 30.11.2018The 2016 Clinet is composed of 90% Merlot and 10% Cabernet Sauvignon. It was aged using the Oxoline system. in 70% new and 30% one-year-old barrels for 16 months. It has a deep garnet-purple color with cedar and smoked meats on the nose giving way to black and red plums and earthy notions with wafts of cassis and pencil shavings. The palate is medium to full-bodied. elegant. polished and vivacious with loads of red and black fruit layers and an earthy finish. Around 4.416 cases produced.
Verkostungsnotiz aus Januar 2019:The 2016 Clinet. a blend of 88% Merlot and 12% Cabernet Sauvignon. was cropped at 49hl/ha and matured in 70% new oak. It has a quintessential Pomerol bouquet of vibrant floral aromas. black cherries and hints of Christmas cake and truffle. The palate is medium-bodied with supple tannin and very harmonious and refined. The sample at the château showed a touch more backbone than the one at the London UGC tastings. offering plenty of blackberry and black olive notes and then turning saline toward the dense. muscular finish. A classy. sophisticated Clinet that will reward those with the nous to cellar it for several years. Outstanding.
Verkostungsbericht vom 03. Februar 2019:Beautiful blue fruit and earth with hints of black truffle. this has a violet and fragrant edge. too. Really complex. youthful impression here. The palate has mouthwatering fruit flavor and terrific sense of fresh energy and cut on the finish. A blend of 90 per cent merlot and ten per cent cabernet sauvignon. Try from 2024.

Neal Martin bewertet den Chateau Clinet 2016 im April 2017:
The 2016 Clinet is a blend of 90% Merlot and 10% Cabernet Sauvignon that was picked from 22 September for the young vines. the older vines picked 1 and 2 October. finishing with the Cabernet Sauvignon the following day. It was cropped at 49 hectoliters per hectare and matured in 70% new oak and the remainder in second-fill barrels. It has 14.15% alcohol and a record-breaking 94 IPT. It has a very linear bouquet. quite strict and intense with a light iodine and marine scent merging with the black fruit. This is a more "aristocratic" nose for Clinet. sophisticated and one of the most nuanced I have encountered. The palate is medium-bodied with filigree tannin that forms the foundation of a more masculine Clinet. complex and focused with a subtle spiciness coming through on the finish. which fans out with confidence and leaves a disarming. saline tang in the mouth. Yes. this is a magnificent Clinet. cool and mineral-soaked. both cerebral and lip-smackingly delicious.

Dark in profile. with plum. blackberry and black currant fruit melded together. while wood spice and bramble hints run along the edges. Plenty of depth and length here. with lively tobacco and tar notes on the finish. This fleshes out with air too. Impressive. in the richer style. —J.M.

The linear character to this is so impressive with beautiful blackberries and blueberries. Crushed stones and minerals. Medium to full body. Very pretty.
