Viticulture: Traditional, soil-focused farming. Hand-harvested Merlot and Cabernet Franc from 4.5 hectares surrounding the church of Pomerol. Deep clay and gravel soils with natural slopes and a century-old drainage network. Around one quarter of the vines are more than 75 years old, including Cabernet Franc planted in the 1930s.
Winemaking: Gently crushed grapes are separated by parcel and fermented in 14 small temperature-controlled stainless-steel vats. Malolactic fermentation takes place in tank. Aged for 15–18 months in French oak, generally using 70–85% new barrels depending on the vintage.
Château L’Eglise Clinet, renowned in Pomerol, Bordeaux, stands out for its old vines, some from the 1930s, and meticulous winemaking. On deep clay and gravel soils, it enhances Merlot and Cabernet Franc, producing complex, aromatic Bordeaux wines. Its limited production, 1,000 to 1,500 cases yearly, reflects a commitment to quality over quantity.
