Clarendelle
red seeks its inspiration in
the quality, elegance and harmony
of the Domaine Clarence Dillon
family
of wines. The wine seeks not
power but rather balance. This
philosophy aims to reflect the
excellence and tradition of
its heritage. The character
and subtle structure of Clarendelle
red comes from the "assemblage",
a rigorous selection of Bordeaux's
three traditional red grapes
varietals. The art of assemblage
consist of blending the quality
and characteristics of each
grape varietal in order to make
up a harmonious wine, thereby
determinating the style of the
future Clarendelle red. The
proportion of each grape will
vary according to the vintage.

The
Merlot is first to ripen
and enjoys a natural softness.
It provides the wine with a
beautiful deep purple colour.
"This mantle" cloaks
a soft velvety roundness which
one could say provides the body
of this assemblage.
The Cabernet Sauvignon,
later-ripening varietals, provides
both the freshness and armature
for the wine thereby bringing
with it refinement and structure
but also a greater potential
for aging.
The Cabernet Franc offers
a deep colour and subtle floral
aromas, an extra elegance or
even a soul to our wine.
