Description
The balance and richness of a great Pomerol wine
The property
Located northwest of Pomerol, the Château de Sales is a historic property on the right bank of Bordeaux, belonging to the same family for over five centuries. The Lambert heirs and their children now oversee the destiny of this iconic property producing great Pomerol wines.
The vineyard
With an area of 47.60 hectares, the Château de Sales vineyard is thus the largest in the Pomerol appellation.
The vintage
The warm and dry climate from late May to mid-June promotes homogeneous flowering. Particularly dry, July is punctuated at the end of the month by rainy episodes unlocking the maturities. The significant thermal variations between day and night during August, as well as the coolness of September, ensure good grape maturation.
Vinification and aging
The aging is carried out in new barrels (5%) and barrels of 1 to 3 years (95%).
Blend
Merlot (82%)
Cabernet-sauvignon (9%)
Cabernet-franc (9%).
