Description

The elegance and freshness of a great Pomerol red wine

The estate

Created in 1920 by a passionate couple, Château Le Bon Pasteur was taken over in 1978 by the renowned oenologist Michel Rolland and his brother, who thus succeeded their father at the helm of this Bordeaux grand cru.

The vineyard

The estate’s 6.6 hectares of vines, located in the heart of the Pomerol appellation, are spread across 23 plots of terroir typical of the region and produce wines of fine quality. With an average age of 40 years, the vineyard is managed using sustainable agriculture, earning the estate the Haute Valeur Environnementale certification.

The vintage

After a wet winter, spring continued under rainy conditions. All the skill and attention of Château Le Bon Pasteur’s technical team were required to help the vines give their best, due to mildew attacks. In June, the sun returned and shone throughout the summer up to harvest time.

Blend

Merlot (75%) complemented by Cabernet Franc (25%).
