The Château Clinet is located on the top of the Pomerol plateau, the cradle of all the prestigious vintages of this Terroir. The name ‘Clinet’ is spelled ‘Cliné’ on the Belleyme map dating from 1785. The name could come from the Old French ‘Cliner’ which means gentle slope on which this vineyard is planted from the famous plateau of Pomerol.
The vineyard extends over 8.5 hectares of deep old gravel with a subsoil rich in iron dross. The vineyard whose average age is 40 years is planted with black Merlot for 85%, Cabernet Sauvignon 10% and Cabernet Franc 5%. The grapes are hand-picked and sorted in the winery and the wine is aged in new oak barrels for 80% for 16 to 22 months.
