Clarendelle Rouge By Haut Brion 2016

A blend of Merlot, Cabernet Sauvignon and Cabernet Franc.

The Clarendelle Rouge's paramount feature is its freshness thanks to good acidity that underlines its intrinsic fruitiness. It is very well-balanced and has a brilliant, intense, ruby-red colour. The nose is complex and fruity, with tangy redcurrant and blueberry aromas. The tannin is elegant and silky. The acidity on the palate perfectly complements the attractive fruit and confers an attractive lightness. There is a long aftertaste with a beautiful fruity finish. A vintage in which Clarendelle is fully worthy of its reputation!
