Description

Well-balanced and rich, a fine Pomerol wine

The estate

Located to the northwest of Pomerol, Château de Sales is a historic estate on the right bank of Bordeaux and has been owned by the same family for over five centuries. Today, the Lambert heirs and their children continue the legacy of this iconic estate that produces fine Pomerol wines.

The vineyard

Comprising 47.60 hectares of vines, the vineyard belonging to Château de Sales is the largest in the Pomerol appellation.

The vintage

The hot and dry climate from the end of May to mid-June favoured an even flowering period. July was particularly dry and was punctuated by rainy spells at the end of the month which triggered the ripening process. The noticeable temperature variations between day and night during the month of August and the cool month of September ensured a good ripeness level.

Winemaking and ageing

The wine is aged in new barrels (5%) and in 1 to 3-year old barrels (95%).

Blend

Merlot (82%)
Cabernet Sauvignon (9%)
Cabernet Franc (9%).

Colour
The colour is a beautiful purple, with violet hues.

Nose
Complex and intense, the nose blends subtle woody fragrances with notes of ripe fruit.

Palate
This Pomerol wine has a very pleasant attack on the palate and offers a harmonious balance along with a good volume and roundness. The finish is persistent, with fine, elegant tannins and intense aromas of fruit.
