CHÂTEAU CLINET 1990

Pomerol.
u. 2 x bn. 2 x marked labels.

A sensational effort, and one of the two finest Clinets made before the 2008, this prodigious wine made by the late Jean-Michel Arcaute has always been a sprinter out of the gate. Even at age 19, it continues to strut its stuff. A dense blue/garnet/purple hue exhibits slight lightening at the edge, and the gorgeous nose offers up aromas of sweet blueberries, licorice, smoke, acacia flowers, and camphor. June 2009 WA 97

2 bts.    per lot $700 - $900

Realised: $936
Price Includes Buyer's Premium ?
