Clos du Clocher 1947 – Haut Pomerol 1er Cru

Deep and dense colors. The nose is aromatic, spicy, ample, airy and offers deepness, complex, precise as well as a certain intensity and finesse. It reveals notes of dried cassis, incense, dried blackberry and small notes of dried strawberry associated with fine touches of tobacco/tobacco box, fig as well as a almost dried apricot hint and discreet hints of spices. The palate is beautifully delicate, supple, ripe, elegant, airy, beautifully velvety and offers tension, a certain concentration, a beautiful matter as well as a very nice acidity and energy. On the palate, this wine expresses notes of dried blackcurrant and quite ripe blackberry (even jammy) associated with touches of camphor, warm gravels / iodized gravel, tobacco, camphor, bergamot as well as fine hints of clove, elegant leather and a toasted hint. Tannins are polished, harmonious and elegant. Fine hints of chocolate / toast. Fine hints of toasted hazelnut on the persistence. Sublime velvety and subtle. A harmonious, delicate and precise wine. What an emotion!
