CLINET
A new era for Clinet began in 1986 when Jean-Micheal Arcaute took over and capitalized on the magnificent terroir of the Château by emphasizing quality of fruit. In the vineyard, this was accomplished by going back to hand harvesting, rigorous sorting and extended hang time. Winery operations were improved by long maceration and temperature-controlled fermentation in small stainless steel vats. The wines are matured in new oak barrels and are finally bottled unfined and unfiltered. The percentage of Cabernet Sauvignon has also been decreased to accentuate the quintessential Pomerol grape: Merlot.
Château Clinet--Vintage 1989
Pomerol
Both lots in original wooden cases
Parcel: lots 995-996
The 1989's aroma (believe it or not, the first bottle in the blind tasting was badly corked) jumps from the glass, offering up pure scents of flowers, black-raspberries, currants, vanillin, and truffles. Full-bodied, with a seamless texture, fabulous concentration, a massive degree of richness, but no heaviness or awkwardness, this remains one of the most profound young wines I have ever tasted. Its sweetness of fruit and layers of flavor, combined with its remarkable texture are the stuff of legends. Both of these wines are approachable (their high Merlot content ensures them softness), yet they remain largely unevolved. If readers like them young, do not hesitate to drink a bottle or two. Ideally, both the 1989 and 1990 vintages will benefit from 4-5 years of cellaring. Given the 1989's additional flavor extraction and length, it is a 25-30-year wine. Anticipated maturity: 2001-2030.
