Clinet is very much a part of the heritage of Pomerol, thanks to its uniquely positioned terroir and the work of extraordinary people who have built the worldwide reputation of its wine throughout the centuries. Château Clinet is a small Pomerol property that has leapt to prominence in the last 15 years and now produces one of the most sought-after wines in the region. The 9-hectare vineyard is on top of one of the finest plateaux in Pomerol and is planted with Merlot (80%), Cabernet Sauvignon (10%) and Cabernet Franc (10%). 1999 marked the purchase of the estate by the Laborde family, but it was also the start of substantial restructuring and replanting in the vineyard, which today is nearing full production capacity.
