Produced by Henry Gasparoux \u0026amp; Fils, it brings the character of Pomerol to the table in a traditional bottle with a distinctive heraldic label. Choose it for a dinner with friends, a celebratory meal or a gift for someone who enjoys exploring French reds.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003e🏰 The Gasparoux family’s roots in Pomerol go back to 1934, when Fernand Gasparoux acquired Château Ferrand. That long connection to the region gives this wine a compelling background. Merlot and Cabernet Franc form the blend, combining fruit with structure. Fermentation in temperature-controlled stainless steel is followed by maturation in barriques, including a proportion of new barrels.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003e🍒 Clos Vieille Ecole Merlot 2020 Pomerol Dry Red Wine has a full-bodied feel, dark fruit and a clear tannic framework. Floral and savoury accents bring interest beyond the initial fruit, while subtle oak adds another layer. Take your time with the first glass: let the aromas develop, then return to it with food and notice how the balance changes. A generous red-wine glass makes that exploration easier.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003e🍽️ A steak, slow-cooked beef or roasted lamb would make a satisfying starting point. For a more relaxed evening, try a good burger or mushroom pizza. These are serving suggestions that let the wine’s richness share the stage with familiar flavours. Serve at 16–18°C and consider opening the bottle ahead of the meal, tasting as it breathes rather than relying on a fixed decanting time.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003e✨ Clos Vieille Ecole Merlot 2020 Pomerol Dry Red Wine suits a host who wants a classic French wine with enough presence for dinner. Wine in Black rates this vintage 95\/100 in its own retailer assessment. It is an invitation to discover the bottle for yourself, whether you plan to share it now or keep it for another well-chosen occasion.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003ch3\u003e📋 Key Details\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\n\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e🏰 Producer: Henry Gasparoux \u0026amp; Fils\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e🌍 Country: France\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e📍 Region \/ appellation: Pomerol AOC, Bordeaux\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e📅 Vintage: 2020\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e🍷 Style: Dry red, full-bodied\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e🍾 Volume: 750 ml\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e💪 Alcohol: 14% ABV\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e🪵 Maturation: Oak barriques, with a proportion of new barrels\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e🔒 Closure: Cork\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e🌿 Profile: Dark fruit, floral and savoury accents, subtle oak\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e🌡️ Serve: 16–18°C; allow time to breathe\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e🍽️ Suggested pairing: Steak, beef, lamb, burgers or mushroom pizza\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e🍇 Grapes: Merlot, Cabernet Franc\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e🏆 Verified rating: Wine in Black — 95\/100 (retailer’s own assessment)\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e","brand":"Henry Gasparoux \u0026 Fils","offers":[{"title":"France \/ Dry \/ Red","offer_id":46806325067930,"sku":"3397859637844","price":150.0,"currency_code":"GEL","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0663\/7053\/5578\/files\/clos-vieille-ecole-pomerol-2020-front.png?v=1791111592","url":"https:\/\/www.alcozon.ge\/products\/clos-vieille-ecole-merlot-2020-pomerol-dry-red-wine","provider":"Alcozon","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
