Château Clarke Baron Edmond de Rothschild 2023 (75cl)

A 2023 wine from Château Clarke in Listrac-Médoc. The estate is named after the Irish family that acquired it in 1771. Baron Edmond de Rothschild bought the neglected property in 1973, replanted the vineyard and thoroughly renewed the buildings and cellars. His son Benjamin and wife Ariane continued that work, and Ariane de Rothschild now preserves the heritage within Edmond de Rothschild Heritage. The limestone clay soils of Listrac are central to the estate and explain the important share of Merlot. The baron chose to be buried among his vineyards.
