£45.00

Château Clarke is a distinguished wine estate located in the Listrac-Médoc appellation of Bordeaux, France. The estate's origins trace back to the 12th century when Cistercian monks first cultivated vines on the property. In 1771, the Clarke family acquired the estate, lending it their name. A significant transformation occurred in 1973 when Baron Edmond de Rothschild purchased Château Clarke. Under his ownership, the vineyard underwent extensive replanting and modernization, revitalizing its winemaking practices and enhancing the quality of its wines.

The 2019 vintage of Château Clarke is a testament to the estate's commitment to excellence. This wine exhibits a deep crimson hue with a purple rim, signaling its concentration and depth. On the nose, it offers a complex bouquet of blackcurrant, cherry, and subtle roasted notes, intertwined with aromas of cedar and hints of menthol and liquorice . The palate is marked by velvety tannins and a magnificent freshness, leading to a long, delightful finish. In summary, the 2019 Château Clarke is a compelling expression of Listrac-Médoc's potential, combining tradition with refined winemaking to produce a wine of notable character and longevity.
