The 2020 Clarendon Hills Domaine Clarendon BDX is a premium Bordeaux-style blend from McLaren Vale, crafted with a focus on richness, structure and elegance. The nose is layered and complex, showing aromas of blackcurrant, plum and dark cherry intertwined with cedar, tobacco, dried herbs and subtle oak spice.
On the palate, it is medium to full-bodied with fine tannins and a polished texture, delivering concentrated dark fruit flavours balanced by savoury complexity and fresh acidity. Notes of cassis, mocha and spice carry through to a long, refined finish. The style is powerful yet composed, combining New World generosity with classic Bordeaux-inspired structure.
Ben’s Recommendation:
At Wine More Cellars, this is an excellent option for customers who enjoy premium Cabernet-based blends with both richness and sophistication. Enjoy now with decanting or cellar over the next 8–12 years. Perfect with roast lamb, grilled ribeye, slow-cooked beef or aged hard cheeses.
