Clos des Grands Moines

This small 8.5 hectare Lalande de Pomerol estate is only 2 km from the famous plateau of Pomerol. The sustainably farmed vineyards are situated on a fabulous gravelly mound, perfect for growing Merlot, Cabernet Franc and Cabernet Sauvignon. This wine offers a subtle fresh fruit nose with hints of menthol and an underlying toasty character, great concentration, along with supple plummy Merlot fruit and a tightly textured palate built on firm but ripe tannins.
