2015 vintage. A very fine Castillon by Denis Durantou ( of Eglise-Clinet fame). Better the second day, so you might want to decant. Totally outperforming stablemate Les Cruzelles ( Lalande de Pomerol), tasted alongside. Good red fruit concentration, balancing the typical Castillon chalkiness. 75% Merlot, 20% Cabernet Franc, and 5% Cabernet Sauvignon.Abv. 14,5% — 5 months ago
This Castillion Chateau was acquired by the late Denis Durantou of L'Eglise Clinet roughly 15 years ago. Just as promised it delivers excellent value. Damp earth, currants, plums, black truffle and some green notes. Very solid. Would buy again. 2019 is the last vintage Monsieur Darantou harvested. — 2 years ago
Dark fruit on the pallet - pretty smooth. Enjoyed with steak and potato. — a year ago
Выпито ,375 Ronan by Clinet в Обнинске. Прекрасное мягкое рабочее Бордо в Померольсеом стиле. Очень зашло. Цена - смешная, 760 рублей в Vinoterra. Надо будет забрать остатки. Сегодня Женя подарил мне фантастический подарок на Дееь Рождения! Они с женой большие молодцы! — 4 years ago

Still somewhat tight and primary. A dense and masculine Pomerol. Needs more time. — 2 days ago
