The exposure of this property is ideal. This superb 4.6 hectare estate lies just in front of the chapel, only 200 metres from Vieux Château Certan and 300 metres from Château Pétrus. Clos de Clocher benefits from soils rich in blue clay. The 2025 vintage marks the 101st year since Jean-Baptiste Bourotte's father purchased the first plot in front of the church. It is also the château’s second officially certified organic vintage.

A very impressive Clos de Clocher! Rich, dense and more textural in style, offering warm mulled black fruits, laced with cherry liqueur and bergamot and balanced by a lovely purity and intense minerality. Yields were small in 2025 - just 35hl/ha and the oak was carefully managed at 50% new, but Clocher has also begun using 5% Amphora and 5% glass which adds to the purity and finish.
Harvest 4th - 23rd September and 7th October, with a yield of 35hl/ha. Aged in 56% new oak barrels.
