A red wine from Pomerol from a demanding vintage
The property
The vineyard of Château La Pointe extends over 23 hectares planted on a mosaic of gravel and pebble soils, clay-gravel, sandy on clays or gravels, giving the wines of the property a singular and delicate style. Accompanied by Hubert de Boüard de Laforest, co-owner of Château Angélus, the property's team has been carrying out significant work since 2008 to evolve cultural practices in order to best express the potential of this reference of the Pomerol appellation.
The vineyard
This Pomerol wine comes from a 23-hectare vineyard.
The vintage
With its unpredictable weather conditions, 2021 brought a lot of stress and worry to the property's teams, who were keen to find the balance between cultural necessities and environmental commitments. It required total dedication from the winegrowers, even on weekends, to bring to fruition a harvest that was predicted to be low from the beginning of the summer, following a significant episode of coulure.
A late vintage that contrasts with the previous very sunny ones, 2021 required patience to reach maturity. The harvest thus began on September 27 with the merlot and extended until October 13 for the harvest of the last cabernet francs.
Vinification and aging
After a rigorous selection in the vineyard and then in the cellar to ensure a mature and homogeneous maturity, the whole challenge of the vinification of this vintage lay in the balance to be found to favor gentle extractions allowing to reveal the finesse of the tannins and the elegance of the aromatic bouquet.
The blend
Merlot (82%) and cabernet franc (18%).
Tasting
The 2021 vintage is carried by a remarkable freshness framed by fine and well-integrated tannins. The finesse and elegance of this Pomerol wine are exalted by impeccable precision. Château La Pointe 2021 is a vintage with a marked identity, the result of a lot of courage and determination.
