PRODUCT REVIEWS

Here Château de Clotte once again demonstrate the sheer craftsmanship and exquisite, Saint-Émilion-flavoured terroir you can still find in a sub-£15 bottle of Right Bank claret. A sumptuous cab franc/merlot/malbec blend showing rich, berry fruit flavours and a hint of spice, tobacco and vanilla from its oak ageing, and one ever more exuberant when opened an hour beforehand.

Featured in The Times:
"Another classy Castillon claret, this time mostly cabernet franc, with merlot and a dash of malbec. Ready to drink now, what you get from this red, stylishly integrated with oak, is a rich, meaty, truffley, umami-laden mouthful that is perfect with a festive baron of beef." Jane McQuitty, The Times, 26/11/2022

Tasting note
Château de Clotte has an illustrious history dating from the 13th century and originally owned by the Dukes of Castillon. Their 2016 vintage has lovely rich berry fruit flavours and a hint of spice, tobacco and vanilla from its oak aging. It is still youthful but when opened an hour beforehand, it blossoms in the glass.

Critic reviews
"...I had it marked down for at least twice the price, so classic and sophisticated is it. With intense, ripe, fresh and bitter cherries in the mouth and sweet and savoury spice, its finish goes on and on. Its a cast-iron belter at a derisory price."
Jonathan Ray, The Spectator
