Winemaker / Tasting Notes
The story of Clarendelle is directly linked to the iconic first growth estate of Chateau Haut Brion in Bordeaux. In 2005, nearly 75 years after Clarence Dillon purchased the original Chateau Haut Brion, his great grandson (& President of Domaine Clarence Dillon) Prince Robert of Luxembourg launched a new super premium branded wine he named Clarendelle in honor of his great grandfather. This brand was established as an affordable alternative to the Haut Brion and La Mission Haut Brion labels. Displaying a beautiful dark & dense crimson color, the nose reveals lifted black cherry aromas. On the palate, the black cherry characters directly translate with added wood notes within a fine tannic structure. This is a very elegant, well-balanced, ample, & powerful Bordeaux.
