While 2013 was a challenging vintage for red Bordeaux across the board, critics generally describe Clauzet 2013 as a successful, mid-weight wine with the firm structure typical of its region. The 2017 vintage is particularly notable as it was the final one produced under the 20-year ownership of Baron Velge before the estate was sold to Jacky Lorenzetti and the integration of Château Clauzet within the structure of Château La Haye. VARIETALS 55% Cabernet Sauvignon, 40% Merlot, 5% Cabernet Franc and Petit Verdot VINTAGE 2013 -
