Château Clarke Listrac-Médoc Magnum 1.5L – Bordeaux Red Wine

Château Clarke Listrac-Médoc is beautifully deep crimson-red Bordeaux with an expressive bouquet of ripe wild berries, blackcurrant and dark cherry. The nose is bright and elegant, revealing layers of fresh cedar, plum and subtle hints of vanilla, toasted oak and gentle spice. The palate is rich, full-bodied and wonderfully harmonious, with concentrated dark fruit flavours balanced by fresh acidity, velvety tannins and a refined touch of oak. Merlot brings a generous, rounded texture, while Cabernet Sauvignon adds structure and definition. Elegant yet satisfying, it finishes long, smooth and beautifully balanced, with lingering dark fruit and delicate cedar notes.

Château Clarke Listrac-Médoc is part of the Edmond de Rothschild Heritage collection and has a history stretching back to the eighteenth century. The estate takes its name from the Irish Clarke family, who purchased the property in 1771. In 1973, Baron Edmond de Rothschild acquired the château, beginning a significant period of investment and redevelopment that transformed the vineyards, winery and estate facilities.

Situated in Listrac-Médoc, the property covers approximately 55 hectares of vineyards planted on clay-limestone soils. These conditions are particularly favourable for Merlot, which accounts for 70% of the vineyard planting, with Cabernet Sauvignon making up the remaining 30%. This Merlot-led approach gives Château Clarke a distinctive identity within the Médoc, producing wines that combine generous fruit with classic Bordeaux structure.

The estate places considerable emphasis on precision in the vineyard and winery. Grapes are carefully selected and vinified in a combination of wooden and stainless-steel vats, with controlled extraction to achieve balance and concentration. The wine is traditionally matured for around 16 months in French oak barrels, allowing it to gain texture, complexity and subtle aromatic depth.

Today, Château Clarke is recognised as an important reference point for Listrac-Médoc, producing wines that express the character of its clay-limestone terroir while maintaining the elegance and craftsmanship associated with the Edmond de Rothschild name.
