Description
A complex and delicate Pomerol red wine
The estate
Located in the Pomerol appellation, Château La Cabanne has belonged to the Jean-Pierre Estager family since 1952. This ancient property bears witness to deep roots in viticulture, as vines have been cultivated here since Gallo-Roman times. The name Château La Cabanne is associated with the era of the huts of the former serfs and coloni tenant farmers working in the vineyards at the time. Following a fire in 2010, Château La Cabanne underwent a complete renovation. Since 2011, the property has been equipped with a high-performance work tool that enables it to produce wines that are worthy of its great terroir.
The vineyard
Château La Cabanne 2022 is a Pomerol wine that stems from a 9-hectare vineyard on the western slope of the appellation's plateau. The vines are planted on clay soils with, in particular, the famous blue clay veins of Pomerol, while the subsoil is made up of ash with the presence of various metallic oxides. The vineyard is certified HVE level 3 (High Environmental Value Level 3).
This 2022 vintage marks the second year of the estate's conversion to organic farming.
The grape variety of Château La Cabanne is composed of Merlot (94%) and Cabernet Franc (6%).
