Patience has been the key word in the history of this estate, surrounded by ancestral châteaux.
It was bought in 1882 by the current owner's great-great-grandfather, but production never proved profitable. It took all the visionary know-how of the winemaker, as well as time and patience, to allow the wine-making potential of this estate to blossom. Today, it is much sought-after for the richness and elegance of its wines.
Château l'Eglise-Clinet's relatively small surface area (5.5 hectares) implies low wine production, and by extension, patience to discover a wine with complex flavors.
