Tasting Notes
Dark ruby color, elegant and complex. In mouth, the wine is supple, and develops smoky aromas. Fruity, well‐bodied and fleshy because of the Merlot, delicate tannins with red fruits and truffle. Well balanced between elegance and power.
The Vineyard
Formerly part of the estate of Bourgneuf, the first trace of Château Grange‐Neuve began at the end of the 19th century by a grandfather of the owners. The vineyard has been enlerged step by step.
Today, there are 7 hectares situated on the west side of Pomerol. The soil is made with silica in surface and iron in depth (it is called ʺcrasse de ferʺ) which is very particular of the terroir of Pomerol. Merlot is the main grape, almost 100% of the vines. The whole vineyard has been entirely re‐planted after the great frost in 1956.
Vinification
Manual harvest, and destemming of the whole. Vatting during a month, with numerous pumping‐over. After the running‐off, wines are naturally clarified with the cold temperature of winter.3 months after the harvest, wines are put in barrels, with 33% of which are new. Ageing in barrels will take 12 to 18 months, and then wines will be pumped again into vats to be fined with white‐egg and bottled.
