A serious effort in the vintage, the 2017 Clos Du Clocher delivers pure, darker chocolate aromas along with an almost inky quality and noticeable charred oak. Full-bodied, rich, and concentrated on the palate, it has polished tannins, excellent depth, and a powerful yet balanced profile. This impressive Pomerol is structured yet accessible and should evolve beautifully over the coming 15-20 years. - Jeb Dunnuck 94/100 Drink 2023-2038.

“The 2017 Clos du Clocher has turned out beautifully. Rich, ample and voluptuous in feel, the 2017 has so much to offer. Juicy dark cherry, plum, chocolate, spice, new leather, licorice and mocha abound in a plush, open-knit Pomerol that has so much to offer. This is such a delicious and compelling wine.” - Antonio Galloni, Vinous (December 2020), 93/100, Drink 2022–2032

“Medium to deep garnet-purple colored, the 2017 Clos du Clocher bursts from the glass with bold blueberry preserves, Christmas cake and baked plums scents plus nuances of raspberry leaves, unsmoked cigar and tapenade. Medium to full-bodied, the palate reveals mouth-filling blackberry and spicy layers, framed by firm, rounded tannins and seamless freshness, finishing long.” - Lisa Perrotti-Brown, Robert Parker Wine Advocate (March 2020), 92+/100, Drink 2020–2034
