Purchased by Albert Powers in 1998, Château Pomeaux Pomerol has been managed by Joel Palous since 2015. Today, average production is limited to 8,000 bottles per year, which is a testament to the exclusivity of the vintages produced.Located on the southeastern slope of Pomerol, this exceptional terroir is situated near major appellations such as Petrus at 1.5 kilometers, Cheval Blanc at 250 meters, and Château Figeac at 500 meters.A 45 year old organic Merlot vineyard, using biodynamic principles (conversion to organic not certified in 2001), two hectares are traditionally planted at 6,600 vines per hectare with a spacing of 1.5 meters between rows and one meter between each vine. The soil is composed of gravel, clay and ferruginous sand (iron oxide), the latter also being called "crasse de fer". The wine is aged for 18 to 24 months in new oak barrels, 70% of which are renewed each year, with an additional year of bottle ageing before being sold.
To enhance our wine, three of the finest coopers have been selected: Quintessence: a special selection of medium-roasted barrels, which preserves the wine's fruitiness and announces itself discreetly at the beginning of the palate.Seguin Moreau: the largest component of our barrel program. The medium-plus sitetoastage brings substance to the mid-palate, complementing the body and enhancing the wine's velvety smoothness.Et Remond: a Burgundy barrel maker, graciously aging the wine over a longer time horizon. These barrels preserve the wine's acidity, giving it length and a beautiful finish.
I've been in charge of Château Pomeaux since 1998, unexpectedly, when the owner bought the property, he asked me to look after it. As the grandson of a winegrower, it was a dream, and what's more, in Pomerol, I live that dream every day with passion.
