The Elegance of Pessac-Léognan: Château Le Thil Comte Clary

A jewel in the Graves region, Château Le Thil Comte Clary benefits from the meticulous care of the Château Smith Haut Lafitte team, who acquired the property in 2012. This commitment to 'Bio-Precision' viniculture ensures that this red wine is a benchmark for the appellation, offering the classic structure, complexity, and longevity expected from a fine Bordeaux.

Tasting Profile

• Appearance: A deep, alluring garnet hue.
• Aroma: The bouquet is sophisticated, presenting layers of dark forest fruits (blackcurrant, plum) intertwined with classic Graves notes of pencil lead, scorched earth, and a hint of vanilla and cigar box spice from its time in French oak.
• Taste: Elegant and beautifully balanced, the palate is medium-to-full bodied with a core of ripe fruit and a backbone of polished, fine-grained tannins. The finish is persistent, showcasing the distinctive minerality of the Pessac-Léognan terroir. A truly sophisticated claret.

Food Match & Serving

Best served at cellar temperature (16°C-18°C). Decanting for an hour is highly recommended to soften the structure and enhance the aromatic complexity.
