Clos l’Église: Timeless Excellence from the Heart of Pomerol
A historic estate rooted in a rare terroir
Clos l’Église is one of the most iconic properties in the Pomerol appellation, located on Bordeaux’s Right Bank. Spanning 6 hectares, the vineyard sits on clay-gravel soils rich in iron deposits, a hallmark of Pomerol that contributes strength, structure and a distinct mineral signature to the wines.
Since 1997, the Garcin-Cathiard family has guided the estate with passion and precision. Grapes are harvested by hand, fermented using gravity flow methods, and aged in 100% new French oak barrels. The blend, dominated by plush and velvety Merlot and balanced with fresh, floral Cabernet Franc, results in wines of depth, complexity, and remarkable aging potential.
Clos l’Église combines traditional craftsmanship with modern know-how, offering wines that are a faithful expression of the unique hillside vineyard from which they come.
Acclaimed vintages and international recognition
The wines of Clos l’Église boast a deep purple hue, a layered bouquet of ripe black fruit, subtle oak, truffle, and spice, and a full-bodied, silky palate. Standout vintages include:
- 2006: refined and elegant, with polished tannins and notes of dark chocolate and spice.
- 2011: structured and fresh, revealing cedar, blackberries, and fine tannins.
- 2012: opulent and rich, with black cherry, licorice, and a long, balanced finish.
Clos l’Église receives top scores from leading wine critics like Robert Parker and James Suckling, and is a highlight at wine auctions worldwide. These prestigious wines can be found on 12bouteilles.com.
