The wine region of Lalande-de-Pomerol
Northern neighbour of Pomerol (Bordeaux right bank) on the communes of Lalande and Neac: signature Merlot as king red (~75%) — fleshy and velvety with notes of black cherry, ripe plum, blackberry, red fruits, truffle, undergrowth and a hint of spice, round tannins and a generous finish in the Pomerol style at an accessible price. Fragrant Cabernet Franc (15-20%) and Cabernet Sauvignon as complements. AOC (1936), ~1,200 ha, clay-gravel and sandy-gravel soils, oceanic climate, ages 5-15 years.
The wine region of Bordeaux
World-renowned age-worthy reds, led by round Merlot (plum, black fruit) or firm Cabernet Sauvignon (blackcurrant, cedar, graphite), blended with Cabernet Franc and Petit Verdot for tannic structure. Structured Médoc and Graves, velvety Saint-Émilion and Pomerol. Also crisp dry whites (Sauvignon/Sémillon) and opulent sweet Sauternes with honey and candied fruit. A 110,000 ha Gironde vineyard, 65 appellations, cradle of the 1855 classified growths.
The word of the wine: Oxidative (breeding)
A method of ageing which aims to give the wine certain aromas of evolution (dried fruit, bitter orange, coffee, rancio, etc.) by exposing it to the air; it is then matured either in barrels, demi-muids or unoaked casks, sometimes stored in the open air, or in barrels exposed to the sun and to temperature variations. This type of maturation characterizes certain natural sweet wines, ports and other liqueur wines.
