Description
Château Clarke is one of the few properties in the Médoc to produce a white wine. The Merle Blanc is part of the Château's history and heritage, as it has existed since the end of the 19th century (1898). Highly appreciated and recognised, it represented up to a quarter of the Château's production. Baron Edmond was keen to revive this tradition. Today, this rare wine is perfectly integrated into the spirit of the estate.
Tasting
Eye : A beautiful, clear yellow colour.
Nose : Very subtle and complex aromas, combining with its mineral side, notes of candied fruits (quince) and finely wooded liquorice. The Merle Blanc has aromas of grapefruit, lemon and acacia.
Mouth : Ample, fat attack, perfectly balanced by a beautiful acidity and a striking freshness. The balance is found throughout its length and ends with a finish of great unctuousness.
Food and wine pairing : Ideal as an aperitif or with a salad, this rare white wine from the Médoc will sublimate the sunny trio of tomato, mozzarella and basil. It is also an elegant accompaniment to fish, seafood and white meats.
