{"title":"CHATEAU CLARKE","description":"\u003cp data-start=\"282\" data-end=\"697\"\u003eChâteau Clarke is one of the leading estates of Listrac-Médoc in Bordeaux, France, renowned for producing refined and age-worthy wines that combine richness, structure, and elegance. Owned by the Baron Edmond de Rothschild family since 1973, Château Clarke has undergone significant investment and revitalisation, establishing itself as one of the benchmark properties of the Médoc.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp data-start=\"699\" data-end=\"1076\"\u003eLocated in the northern part of the Médoc, the estate benefits from clay-limestone and gravel soils, which are particularly well suited to Merlot and Cabernet Sauvignon.

On the palate, it combines ripe fruit, fine tannins, freshness, and impressive structure, with the ability to develop complexity over many years of cellaring. The estate also produces Le Merle de Clarke, a second wine that showcases the approachable side of the château’s style.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp data-start=\"1493\" data-end=\"1803\"\u003eUnder the stewardship of the Rothschild family, Château Clarke has embraced sustainable vineyard practices and modern winemaking techniques while remaining true to the traditions of Bordeaux. The result is a portfolio of wines that consistently deliver quality, balance, and exceptional value within the Médoc.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp data-start=\"1805\" data-end=\"2002\"\u003eAs one of Listrac-Médoc’s most prestigious estates, Château Clarke represents the excellence and heritage of Bordeaux winemaking and remains highly regarded by collectors and enthusiasts worldwide.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp data-start=\"2004\" data-end=\"2218\"\u003eShop Château Clarke wines online at Wine More Cellars Australia.
