the legend
Following the footsteps of the Templars, embark on a journey to discover the incredible story of Château La Commanderie and its Knight, guardian of this mystical place.
varietal
Merlot : The lord of the land at La Commanderie, round and powerful, it expresses fruity aromas (red and black fruits), undergrowth and violets.
Cabernet Franc : The faithful companion : rich in polyphenols and tannins, it brings freshness and complexity.
Soil
The roots of Château La Commanderie’s vines plunge into sandy-gravel soils, some of which are clay, giving each parcel its own character. The subsoil contains iron oxides, known as crasse de fer, which give Pomerol wines their unique identity.
Fermentation
Before being put in vats, the grapes undergo a strict selection process that begins in the vineyard and ends at the reception area. They are then transferred to their respective vats (parcel-by-parcel vinification) using a gravity system. Once alcoholic fermentation is complete, the wines are aged for a minimum of 15 months in barrels.
Tasting note
With a purple hue shifting towards garnet, a thick opaque nectar coats the glass. On the palate, it’s a festival, blending the finesse of tannins and the aromatic intensity with candied black fruits and a hint of spices, more or less pronounced depending on the vintage.
