Château Clinet, Ronan By Clinet Bordeaux Rouge, (Magnum) 2020
This is a 100% Merlot from a variety of appellations on the north bank of the estuary, handled with extreme care and attention. Oak aged to soften the tannins, the nose is expressive with plenty of raspberry, blackberry and cherry fruit with hints of flowers such as violets. On the palate it is deliciously fruity with good structure and excellent acid balance with some fine notes of spices in the finish. Persistent and toothsome. An excellent job from Clinet who built a winery in Pomerol specifically for the production of this little gem.
Mt. Difficulty Bannockburn Pinot Noir 2022
The climate is more continental than Marlborough’s and has similarities with that of Burgundy. Greg Lane coaxes ripe cherry fruit flavours, seasons them with toasty savoury oak and balances with tangy acidity. Wonderful with duck.
