The TOP winemakers of Bordeaux

Château Climens is renowned for producing very fine and delicate white wines. It produces two excellent white wines: the first wine, named "Grand vin du Château Climens," and the second wine, "Cyprès de Climens." The Grand vin du Château Climens offers the taster a golden robe and a very complex nose with hints of pineapple, citrus, mirabelle plum, apricot, apple, flowers, honeysuckle, and sometimes crème brûlée. This first wine is full-bodied, distinguished, and very long on the palate, with great delicacy. This wine can be widely considered a wine for ageing, as its cellaring potential spans 10 to 30 years and beyond (sometimes even more than 50 years in the best vintages). Enthusiasts will note that the Grand vin du Château Climens was not produced in 1965, 1968, 1984, 1987, 1992 or 1993. The second wine, "Cyprès de Climens," offers an aromatic palette of white flowers, mint, linden, citrus, apricot, and spices; it is a fresh and suave wine for immediate enjoyment. It can be cellared for 5 to 15 years. The critics are generally excellent regarding this château, with Robert Parker scores frequently ranging between 93+ and 100/100. Château Climens holds 3 stars in the green guide of the Revue du Vin de France (RVF). The estate's best vintages are: 2015, 2014, 2009, 2007, 2005, 2001, 1997, 1990, 1989, 1988, 1986, 1983, 1975, 1971, 1949 and 1947.
