Clarendelle, the Bordeaux's first premium family of wine is the brainchild of

Prince Robert de Luxembourg who took over running of Domaine Clarence Dillon

group, owner of Clarendelle and Chateau Haut-Brion among others. However film

has been in Prince Robert's blood from the beginning, as he started his

professional life as a screen writer in Los Angeles!

This year Clarendelle is the official and exclusive wine Partner of the Santa

Barbara International Film Festival. Globally celebrated and respected, the

SBIFF is a cinema festival of 35 years standing. Regularly cited as a strong

influence on the outcome of the Oscars, the SBIFF hosts 100,000 passionate film

Kristen Stewart, with the American Riviera Award for outstanding contribution

to American cinema, while also being Oscar-nominated for her role as Lady Diana

Spencer. Prince Robert de Luxembourg raised his glass of Clarendelle to

celebrate her powerful performance.

In the meantime, Clarendelle is proud to announce the launch of two new vintage

releases for the next spring and summer, Bordeaux Blanc 2021 and Bordeaux Rosé

2021, alongside the recent release of Clarendelle Rouge from the glorious 2016

vintage.

Clarendelle Bordeaux Blanc 2021

A cool spring and relatively cool beginning to summer, followed by warmer sun

early in late summer, resulted in a wine with wonderful freshness and

beguiling, complex flavours. The Sauvignon Blanc unveils plethora of aromas,

ranging from boxwood to tropical fruit and an array of citrus notes. The

Muscadelle grape showed great colour contributing fragrant rose and lychee

notes to the blend. A white wine with lovely tension and freshness, and a

delicious palate, round and rich, balanced out by wonderful minerality.

43% Sauvignon Blanc, 32% Semillon, 25% Muscadelle, Alc : 12,5%

Clarendelle Bordeaux Rosé 2021

Harvested from vineyard plots especially selected for rosé, the wine has an

iridescent salmon-pink robe, leading to powerful tropical aromas, dominated by

lychee and pomegranate. This rosé has lovely balance, framed by a smooth

lightly tannic structure. Flavours of liquorice and mint accent the lovely pink

grapefruit flavours. The wine is indulgent and lingering on the palate.

65% Merlot, 32% Cabernet Sauvignon, 3% Cabernet Franc, Alc: 12,5%

And for the red Bordeaux faithful,

Clarendelle Bordeaux Rouge 2016

Clarendelle Bordeaux 2016 is a colourful, fresh and fruity wine, with aromas of

red fruit and blackcurrant alongside floral overtones reminiscent of violet.

They combine the tannic power of great vintages with a deliciously velvety

texture and rare smooth, powerful, and generous on the palate. Their relatively

high level of acidity gives them an admirable freshness and tremendous balance,

without any hardness. Clarendelle Bordeaux 2016 can be enjoyed during an

aperitif or it can be the perfect elegant partner for lunch and dinner during

the coming Spring.

84% Merlot, 10% Cabernet Sauvignon, 6% Cabernet Franc, Alc: 13,5%
