It sits on a plateau immediately northeast of the city of Libourne on the right bank of the Dordogne River. Pomerol and?St-?milion?are the stars of what is referred to as Right Bank Bordeaux:?Merlot-dominant red blends completed by various amounts of?Cabernet Franc?or?Cabernet Sauvignon. While Pomerol has no official classification system, its best wines are some of the world?s most sought after.

Tasting Notes
One of the monumental wines in the vintage is the 2016 Ch?teau Eglise Clinet from proprietor Denis Durantou. Based on 85% Merlot and 15% Cabernet Franc, this utterly perfect wine boasts a saturated purple color as well as an essence of Pomerol bouquet of ripe black cherries, blackcurrant liqueur, smoked tobacco, camphor, and graphite. Deep, full-bodied, incredibly powerful, and layered, yet always with class and balance, it offers a remarkable marriage of power and finesse. It?s already sexy and seductive yet also a baby, and needs 7-8 years of cellaring. It should keep for 3-4 decades (probably longer), but why wait?
