Château Les Cruzelles Lalande de Pomerol 2018

 

Deep red wine with a seductive scent of ripe plum, blueberry, vanilla and cocoa. Powerful and full of flavor with balanced freshness and supple tannin. The finale is long and refined.

 

Denis Durantou, one of the great winemakers in Bordeaux and specialized in the Right Bank appellations such as Lalande-de-Pomerol, Saint-Émilion and Côtes de Castillon, unfortunately passed away in the spring of 2020. His legacy is great and the Château les Cruzelles offered here is, next to the superior and very valuable Pomerol l'Église Clinet, one of his most beautiful wines.

 

Cruzelles made a stunning impression on us during a major tasting and we decided to purchase this fantastic Bordeaux. It is an impressive, round, seductive and at the same time extremely refined blend of 90% merlot and 10% cabernet franc. In our opinion, this is a perfect introduction to the world of top quality Pomerol-style wines, unique and impossible to imitate elsewhere.
