Clos Payrol is a Bordeaux wine from Pomerol appellation near Petrus L’Evangile Le Constelliante and Vieux Chateau Certan.The soil composition on this gradually sloping plateau is clay and gravel with the iron subsoil complementary that gives its unique character profile of violets and is thought to be a factor in the long ageing potential of wines from this area.Just 3 barrels are produced (900 bottles about 75 cases) from the 0.36HA plot of 100% Merlot planted to a density of 7000 vines per hectare 35–50 years old and a yield of 35 HL/HA.
