Aged for 16-18 months in 40% new French oak, the Chateau L’Enclos 2020 is bright, juicy and structured with finesse as well as richness on the palate. With concentrated blackberry, cherry and liquorice aromas on the nose, the palate is medium-bodied and charming with soft, silky tannins. This wine will age wonderfully over the next decade or so.

Chateau L’Enclos was built in 1898 and has been in the capable hands of Denise and Stephen Adams, owners of Chateau Fonplegade, since 2007. Planted with Merlot, Cabernet Franc and Malbec, the vineyards are located on the sunny western slope of Pomerol’s famous plateau, on a mosaic of gravel and clay soils. Chateau L’Enclos has been certified organic since 2017.
