Grand Vin De Bordeaux
LALANDE-DE-POMEROL 2012
THE EXPERIENCE
In the world of art and wine, there are subject matters of such grandeur and refinement that humour, insofar as it offers a novel viewpoint, should make way for deliberation. Landscape, a timeless genre in both France and China, is one such exception, and so is the highly respected Lalande-de-Pomerol, prized for its intensity, potency and structure. Doing away with his usual alter ego, this masterpiece encompasses practically every element imaginable in landscape. Resembling a court painting, this exceptional art piece deserves to be paired with a fine wine of similar stature, calling for a discerning connoisseur.
THE WINE
This outstanding wine is a blend of the best parcels from Lalande-de-Pomerol, a small and renowned terroir of Bordeaux, just a few steps from the great Pomerol appellation. With a dark cherry robe, this wine reveals lovely aromas of red and black fruits with the hint of minerality. (88% Merlot, 7% Cabernet Franc and 5% Cabernet Sauvignon).This is an exceptionally elegant and well balanced wine, offering a long and subtle aftertaste.
