By Clinet - Pomerol 2013
2013 will be recalled as a year of unsettled weather. The spring was nice and warm at the early stage. But cooler weather came and disturbed the flowering predicting lower yields. After that the Summer was beautiful with one of the hottest months of July over the last 15 years. Two hail storms made a lot of damage over Bordeaux, but luckily most of Pomerol was preserved. The end of the Summer was a bit cooler than the average, bringing a more leaner profile to the wines.
