Les Hauts de Chambrun 2019 Lalande de Pomerol 75cl

The Chambrun property was created between the wars by the Chollet family. It was then known under the name “Clos de Chambrun”. The name “Chambrun” would come from the main plot of the vineyard then called “Champ brun”.

In 1994, Jean-Philippe Janoueix bought the 1,70 hectare plot and renamed the property “Château de Chambrun”.
In May 2007, Silvio Denz, a famous Swiss businessman, bought Chambrun and expanded it with a selection of quality plots covering an area of ​​5,14 hectares.
In September 2015, Château Moncets, an important property of the AOC Lalande de Pomerol, acquired the Chambrun vineyard. At the same time, a little more than 3 hectares of quality Merlot were purchased to bring the Chambrun vineyard to 8,84 hectares.
In 2019, 5 hectares of the famous Néac plateau were purchased and thus completed the fragmented establishment of this dynamic 13,84 hectare vineyard.

Grape varieties: 83% Merlot, 17% Cabernet Franc

OLD CHATEAU CERTAN 2019

Pomerol

Grapes: Cabernet Franc, Cabernet Sauvignon, Merlot

Vieux Château Certan is located in the heart of the Pomerol plateau, surrounded by other prestigious estates: Pétrus, L'Evangile, Petit Village, La Conseillante. The soil of his vineyard is made up of a layer of gravel mixed with a little sand resting on the famous iron filth. With this Médoc-influenced terroir, the Cabernets play an important role in the blends. As a result, the wine is less opulent than other Pomerols, but it has a greater tannic structure, as for the aromatics, it is more oriented towards blackcurrant with minty nuances than towards stone fruits. History of the Château Wine production in the property dates from before the revolution, when it belonged to a Scottish family named Demay. In 1858 it was divided in two, the Demays kept for themselves a small plot giving birth to Château Certan de May and the rest of the property was bought by Charles de Bousquet. The latter undertook renovation work on the castle, but spent his fortune before the project came to an end. This left a building that was certainly elegant, but unfinished.
Certan was then purchased by the current owners, the Belgian Thienpont family. In 1947 the youngest of the Thienpont children, Léon, arrived in Bordeaux to manage the château there. He maintained and even increased his reputation until his death in 1985. Since then, his son Alexandre has been at the head of the estate.


Still at the head of the Château, Alexandre Thienpont, continues to hoist the property towards excellence. In particular, he introduces sustainable viticulture, which is more respectful of the environment in order to preserve the integrity of the terroir and the identity of the vintages as much as possible: “I want the wine to fulfill itself, without yeast or exogenous products. »

Castle LAGRANGE POMEROL 2013

9 hectare property located on the northern edge of the Pomerol plateau, Château Lagrange, often called “Lagrange à Pomerol” to differentiate it from its Medoc namesake, has been the property of Etablissements Jean-Pierre Moueix since 1953.
Its soil consists of heavy clays covered with gravels, where Merlot dominates at 95%. Cultivated with the same care and precision as the other wines of Etablissements Jean-Pierre Moueix, Château Lagrange offers a generous and opulent wine, magnifying a Merlot wonderfully blooming on this beautiful terroir of ancient clays.

A wine with surprising aging potential that must wait and never disappoints!
