Chateau de Sales Pomerol 2012

Château de Sales is the largest estate in the Pomerol appellation and has been in the hands of the same family since 1464. Expertise has been passed down through the generations for over 500 years. So it's fair to say they know a thing or two about creating great claret.

Under the same family ownership since the 1400s, wine was not produced at the property until the late 1700s. The largest vineyard site in Pomerol at nearly 50 hectares, planted very rarely in one continguous parcel with a majority Merlot and a little of each Cabernet. There remain another 45 hectares left as forest and parkland.
