Clos de Salles 2019 is a full-bodied, fleshy, and refined Pomerol. Its 18 to 20 months of aging in oak barrels provide structure, roundness, and complexity, without ever overpowering the fruit. A balanced wine, both accessible young and with real aging potential.

Carried out exclusively by hand, the harvest respects the previously identified phenolic maturity of each grape variety.
The harvest is sorted in the vineyard with great care.
The entire malolactic fermentation takes place in new barrels because they give the wine more body and roundness. Separate barrel aging lasts nearly twenty months before blending.

Tasting Notes:

Nose: Ripe black fruits (blackcurrant, blackberry), truffle nuances, sweet spices, noble wood.

Palate: Silky attack, elegant tannins, beautiful body, controlled tension.

With an aging potential of 6 to 15 years, Château Clos de Salles is an invitation to discover the soul of Pomerol in a refined and accessible bottle.

Château Clos de Salles, owned by the De Coninck family since 1998, stretches across magnificent clay-gravel terroirs typical of Pomerol, resting on subsoils rich in iron oxide.
This rare and precious soil fosters a deep and velvety expression of Merlot, the appellation’s leading grape variety.
The vines, averaging 40 years old, are carefully cultivated and vinified in plots in modern cellars.
Malolactic fermentation is carried out in new barrels, highlighting the wine’s natural elegance.
