Chateau Clos du Clocher, Pomerol 2005

"The 2005 Clos du Clocher is a blend of 75% Merlot and 25% Cabernet Franc from a beautifully situated vineyard near the appellation’s lovely church on the heavily clay-dominated plateau of Pomerol. This property produces less than 2,000 cases of wine. With a gorgeous concentration of mocha, coffee, chocolate, kirsch and blackcurrant, this stunning, full-bodied 2005 is soft, silky, opulent and luscious. This beautifully rich, heady Pomerol is certainly a star of the appellation in this vintage. Drink it over the next 10-15 years. Drink 2015 - 2030." - Wine Advocate
