Solid black cherry and some plum fruit as well as background oak, medium to full body, and a ripe, polished, balanced style all characterize the 2020 Château Clarisse Vieilles Vignes. It’s another impressive Right Bank that will have some up-front appeal yet keep for a decade or so.

The 2020 Cuvée Vieilles Vignes is vibrant and loaded with energy. Bright acids drive the red berry fruit, while floral, spice and blood orange notes add quite a bit of aromatic presence. The2020 is a little nervy, but it has fine balance and appears to have enough fruit to fill out the layers.

The 2020 Clarisse Vieilles Vignes gives more amplitude and intensity than the regular cuvée, offering plush black cherries, blueberry and violet aromas.
