One of the wines of the appellation offers depth of color before you get to the flowers, tobacco leaves, espresso, truffle, mint, cedar, black cherries, incense, and chocolatey plums. Plush, supple, and with ample fruit showing sweet, and tart characteristics. The wine provides lift, energy, polish, length, and an edgy finish. The wine blends 75% Merlot, and 25% Cabernet Sauvignon. Drink from 2025-2045.

UGCB Amsterdam, walkaround tasting so just short notes.: 75% Merlot and 25% CS from 74 years old vines. The result is a somewhat green wine with fresh acidity and a firm amount of tannin and a good length, but overall for Clinet a bit disappointing. 92+

Amsterdam UGCB Tasting (Zuiderkerk): A blend of 75% Merlot and 25% Cabernet-Sauvignon. Wonderful freshness from the Cabernet without anything green or leafy, delicately toasted oak, gentle sandy tannins, spiced cherry finish, very good length.

UGCB tasting-Amsterdam 2021 Bordeaux 03-04-2024: A modest, somewhat closed bouquet, an acceptable amount of wood, maybe a bit lean, bit rough in the finish, yet tasty and interesting to follow its development.

Sehr dichte Farbe. Betörende Nase, tiefgründig, noch leicht vom Fass geprägt, dahinter eine wunderbar dunkle, reine Frucht, florale Töne, Cassis, ein Gedicht. Im Gaumen kräftig, zeigt Druck, Konzentration, die Tannine sind von höchster Güte, ausgezeichnet die Balance, hier treffen Kraft und Eleganz aufeinander. Vielleicht der schönste Clinet, der mich vor allem mit seinem frischen Stil überzeugt. 2026-2045+ (Verkostet im November 2023 in Zürich bei UGCB)
