Description
Magnum Clos du Clocher 1967 – Pomerol
The Delicate Imprint of a Great Terroir in an Aged Vintage
Clos du Clocher, a discreet gem nestled in the heart of Pomerol, benefits from an exceptional terroir of deep clay and gravel soils, neighboring prestigious estates like Vieux Château Certan and L’Évangile. The 1967 vintage, often underrated, reveals its quiet charm here—especially in magnum format, which has allowed for a slow, graceful evolution.
In the glass, the wine displays a brick-colored robe with orange and mahogany highlights, a classic sign of well-preserved age. The bouquet is elegant and fully tertiary, offering delicate notes of worn leather, damp forest floor, dry leaves, cigar box, and a hint of stewed plum.
On the palate, the texture is smooth and velvety, with fully resolved tannins and a graceful fluidity. The flavor complexity deepens with nuances of black tea, mushroom, and sweet spices. The finish, subtle yet persistent, reflects a wine in full maturity—gentle, refined, and rich in memory.
This Clos du Clocher 1967 magnum is a wine for contemplation, ideal to enjoy with refined dishes like roasted poultry, veal sweetbreads, or aged soft cheeses.
