Since 1998, Chateau L’Eglise Clinet has been producing some of the finest wine in the Pomerol appellation. In some vintages it is as good, or better than Petrus or Lafleur!
“2011 is an extraordinary year. We are witnessing a heretofore unimaginable development. The alcohol content in the Cabernet Sauvignon is vastly higher than that of the Merlot!”
“2011 is a Bordeaux wine makers vintage. More than ever, this year will reflect each winegrower’s keen perception and responsiveness”.
“There were storms in early September. But the rain and hail were localized. On the whole it was a dry summer. Rumors of a “difficult” season were exaggerated”.
Good luck finding one single wine that will marry perfectly with marshmallow and pecan-laden yams, oyster and sausage stuffing and truffle mashed potatoes. So what is one to do when faced with a potential food and wine pairing disaster?
2011 was a really strange growing season. We had very little rain and hot temperatures in April, May and June. Fortunately, enough rain fell during the véraison.
