We hope you had a great summer!
Here the season was warm, with just a little rain, with over 10 days of temperatures over 35 degrees. We managed to avoid the mildew, & the vines are locked...
A "Grand vin" from 21 hectares in Lalande-de-Pomerol, 1km north of the Pomerol plateau, a bijou made by the former Maître de Chai of Cheval Blanc, Thierry Garnaud. A unique terroir: the Néac plateau. One of the finest wines of the appellation, and one of the best value wines in France - medium bodied, not over extracted, complex, suave & extremely drinkable, typically with notes of truffle, black fruits, spice and cacao. Indeed, the Romans were the first to recognise the plateau's great potential for making wines, almost 2000 years ago.
