An aromatic and delicate red wine from Pomerol
The property
With very ancient origins, the Château Clos René was formerly named "Reney" on the map of the engineer-geographer Pierre de Belleyme. The château has been in the hands of the same family for several generations. It is now managed by Jean-Marie Garde.
The vineyard
The Clos René vineyard is located on the western slope of the Pomerol plateau. With an average age of 35 years, the vineyard of Château Clos René extends over 15 hectares. The vines are planted on gravel and ancient sands dating from the Quaternary period, resting on iron slag subsoils. The vineyard is mainly composed of merlot (70%), cabernet franc (20%) and malbec (10%).
Vinification
The vinification of Château Clos René is carried out in thermoregulated cement vats. The wine undergoes aging in oak barrels for 18 months, of which 30% is new wood renewed each year. Fining with fresh egg whites.
