CLOS 56 2025 – Pomerol: 93–95/100 Pts

Located in the heart of the Pomerol appellation, Clos 56 belongs to the category of discreet, small-scale Right Bank wines, where excellence is primarily driven by precision in vineyard work and the expression of terroir.

The vineyard benefits from Pomerol’s renowned soils of gravel, blue clay, and iron-rich sands. This geological mosaic gives the wines depth, a silky texture, and a high level of aromatic richness.

The 2025 vintage stands out for its fine fruit maturity and particularly harmonious expression. The nose reveals aromas of ripe black fruits, plum, and black cherry, complemented by subtle notes of violet and gentle spices. A delicate touch of oak completes the profile.

On the palate, the attack is smooth and generous, supported by an elegant structure and finely integrated tannins. The balance between roundness, freshness, and aromatic intensity brings precision and leads to a persistent finish.

Clos 56 2025 embodies a modern Pomerol: refined, approachable in its youth, yet offering strong ageing potential.

The Estate – Clos 56

Located in the heart of the Pomerol appellation, Clos 56 belongs to the tradition of small Right Bank estates, where precision in parcel-based vineyard work and attention to detail are essential to the wine’s expression.

The vineyard sits on Pomerol’s emblematic soils, composed of deep clay, gravel, and iron-rich sands. This geological mosaic gives the wines a silky texture, notable depth, and great aromatic intensity.

The vineyard is typically planted for the appellation, dominated by Merlot, often complemented by a touch of Cabernet Franc, adding structure and complexity to the blend.

The estate focuses on controlled yields and parcel-by-parcel vinification in order to preserve fruit purity and the identity of each plot. Ageing in oak barrels refines the structure while respecting the generous and elegant style characteristic of Pomerol.

Today, Clos 56 positions itself as a wine of character, combining precision, roundness, and terroir expression in the great tradition of Pomerol wines.
