Made from a final blend of 85% Merlot, 12% Cabernet Sauvignon and 3% Cabernet Franc that hit 14% natural alcohol, the inky, opaque purple-colored 2011 exhibits notes of blackberries, blueberries, espresso roast and subtle oak. Full-bodied, layered, opulent and flamboyant for a 2011, with loads of concentration and glycerin as well as a long finish, this is one of the most impressive wines of the vintage. It should drink well for two decades.\" (92-94 POINTS) Robert Parker\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eWith a perfect 100 point 2009 vintage and a spellbindingly good 2010, Ronan Laborde is continuing this run of success by once again producing \"one of the most impressive wines of the vintage\" (Parker). \u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eClinet is at the the summit of the Pomerol plateau on the Gûnz gravel which is where all the appellation's greatest wines are to be found. Clinet wines are nearly always rich and powerful with good dep colours and persitance on the palate."}

We have never been very enthusiastic about the wines produced under the d'Arfeuille regime but we were bowled-over by the quality and obvious change in the 2009. Monnert has ripped up the slow-ripening Cabernet-Sauvignon and severely reduced the yields of the Cabernet Franc, giving the wine an added dimension and balance. Very full and sweet with a black fruit nose with hints of spice. Very sensual and appealing.
