Informations
Clante is Podere di Pomaio’s challenge to characterize an international grape with the farm’s unique terroir. The results is a merlot with a pale purple color, a bouquet that goes from plum to a violet touching intense aromas of graphite and flint with a hint of boise remembering tobacco, licorice and not so sweet spicy notes. At the palate is sharp, vertical, easy to drink with velvet tannins and memories of blackberries.
