Tasting Note

Château Clarke is a beautiful crimson color with a deep purple edge. Both intense and complex, the nose displays fresh fruit aromas (black currant and black cherry) and elegant oak nuances, as well as hints of menthol and liquorice with aeration. The wine starts out round and straightforward and follows with rich, concentrated and velvety tannic texture along with beautiful acidity that provides balance and freshness.

About the Winery

Baron Edmond de Rothschild - Chateau Clarke

Bordeaux's 130-acre wine estate is called Château Clarke. The name in itself refers to the Irish family who bought this enormous estate in 1771. Baron Edmond de Rothschild purchased the property in the year 1973 after being passed down through multiple generations that continued the winemaking legacy for more than two hundred years. Edmond de Rothschild, a wine enthusiast like so many other relatives of his distinguished family, wanted to own a small, modest vineyard that he would transform into his masterpiece. After he acquired ownership of the property, the abandoned vineyard was redesigned and then entirely rebuilt over the next four years. The 54 hectares that made up the final wine-producing area prospered commercially, initiating a new chapter.
