About this wine
CHATEAU LE BON PASTEUR, Pomerol
Château Le Bon Pasteur, with total vineyard holdings of 6.7 hectares, is a unique estate on the Right Bank in Bordeaux. It is located on the border between two world-famous regions: Pomerol and Saint-Emilion. As opposed to the great châteaux of the Médoc, the vineyard holdings are not in a single block, but instead they are spread out over 21 plots. This patchwork of terroirs accounts for the wine’s considerable complexity, deep colour and delicate bouquet, as well as a softness typical of Pomerol and a generous, powerful side reminiscent of Saint-Emilion.
The configuration of the estate vineyards is classic Pomerol, with 80% Merlot and 20% Cabernet Franc planted on a combination of clay, sand and gravel soils. Each year the grapes are hand harvested before optical sorting post-destemming. Fermentation occurs in a combination of temperature-controlled small format stainless steel tanks and new French oak barrels. Upon the completion of fermentation the wine in tank is transferred to new French oak barrels where malolactic conversion takes place. The wines are then aged for 15 to 18 months, depending on the harvest conditions. The resulting wines are renowned for their purity and vibrancy, with a wonderful combination of opulence, elegance and ageability.
