Château de ChambrunBordeaux, France
Why you'll love it
A classic Right Bank Bordeaux delivering Pomerol-like richness. Well-reviewed with real ageing potential, yet already approachable with decanting.
Intense ruby color, minty notes on the nose, with a touch of strawberry. On the palate, a powerful attack on the senses- black fruits like blueberries and touches of tobacco and sweet spices.
Roast lamb, beef, mushroom dishes or mature cheeses — its plush fruit and structure make it ideal for rich, savoury food.
Best known in Loire Valley, Bordeaux
Lighter and more fragrant than its famous offspring, Cabernet Sauvignon. Red berries, violets, graphite and a leafy freshness. In the Loire it shines on its own; in Bordeaux it adds perfume to the blend.
Best known in Bordeaux, Italy, Chile
Soft, round and approachable. Plum, black cherry and chocolate, with gentle tannins and a plush texture. It leads the blends of Bordeaux's Right Bank, including Pomerol and Saint-Émilion, and makes generous, easy-drinking reds all over the world.
France
The world's most famous wine region. Left bank: Cabernet-led, structured, age-worthy. Right bank: Merlot-forward, plush, generous. The greatest châteaux set the global benchmark for red wine; the Entre-Deux-Mers makes brilliant dry whites.
Bordeaux, France
A Lalande-de-Pomerol estate working clay-gravel soils close to Pomerol. Le Bourg comes from a small plot of Merlot vines over 45 years old. The rosé is 100% Cabernet Franc, organically farmed and made in concrete. Love Wine stocks both.
More from Château de Chambrun →From Domaines de Moncets, this wine comes from vineyards on the Lalande-de-Pomerol plateau, just north of Pomerol. The blend is Merlot-dominant with Cabernet Franc, aged around 18 months in oak barrels (60% of new oak & 40%) , giving both depth and finesse.
If you like these, you'll love this: If you enjoy Château Moncets Lalande-de-Pomerol or the more structured Remelluri Rioja Reserva, this will be right up your street.
