| Features |
This winery, owned by the Rothschild family, enjoys a prime location in the Pomerol region. The vineyards are made of a mixture of clay and gravel soil, which produces rich flavors and elegant tannins. Considered one of Pomerol's most refined wines, it is primarily made with Merlot and a blend of Cabernet Franc. Its rich fruitiness and depth are combined with an elegant, smooth finish. Unlike other wineries, its refined style and superbly balanced winemaking are what make it so appealing. Renowned for its rare wines, few of which are available on the market, making them difficult to find. The 2009 vintage is a superb wine with typical Pomerol characteristics. The favorable weather conditions allowed the Merlot, in particular, to ripen beautifully, developing a rich fruit profile. The grapes were extremely ripe, resulting in a wine with rich, concentrated flavors. The aroma is a complex blend of blackberry, plum, spice, and truffle, while the palate reveals a mellow texture with smooth tannins. Well-balanced, this wine is suitable for long-term aging, combining the elegance and power of Pomerol. |
