Tasting note Château Vieux Chevrol Lalande de Pomerol
Purple-red wine with a rich bouquet featuring plenty of fruit, a light spiciness, and floral notes. On the palate, a soft entry with a good balance between concentration, tannins, and freshness, and flavors of licorice, caramel, and minerals. The result is a full-bodied and elegant wine with lovely aromas of cedar and forest fruits, with a silky finish in which plums and truffles play a leading role. Long finish with beautifully matured tannins that will become even softer in the coming time.
Food & Wine
Château Vieux Chevrol is very delicious with a hearty game dish like hare stew, but it also pairs very well with ribeye, lamb, and pork.
Other information
Château Vieux Chevrol is a small family estate located just north of Pomerol on the Néac plateau. Château Vieux Chevrol has been in the hands of the Champseix family for three generations. The goal of the Champseix family is to produce high-quality wine that reflects the terroir while remaining affordable. The 21 hectares are located on the Right Bank in Néac in the Lalande de Pomerol appellation, bordering the vineyards of Pomerol.
The soil consists mainly of gray clay, gravel, and ferruginous sandstone. Due to the high proportion of clay, the soil in most places is best suited for the Merlot grape, which tolerates moist soil better than the Cabernet grape.
The grapes are harvested by hand when they are at peak ripeness. The grapes are macerated for 22 days, during which fermentation with natural yeasts takes place. Afterward, the wine is aged for an average of 12 months in 600-liter French oak barrels (demi-muids).
