The red Pomerol is born on the right bank of the Bordeaux territory, where Château Gombaude Guillot manages a small estate of just over 6 hectares, cultivated under organic farming practices, also applying methods derived from biodynamics. The mild climate, influenced by the Gironde estuary and the soils composed of clays and alluvial gravel, create a habitat very suitable for the typical red grape varieties of the area. The grapes of Merlot and Cabernet Franc come from vines over 40 years old that produce with low yields. The harvest is done manually at full ripeness of the grapes and with selection of the best bunches. Fermentation takes place in temperature-controlled concrete or steel tanks, with skin maceration. The wine matures for about a year in new Allier oak barrels for 50% and is then bottled without filtration or clarification and with a very low addition of sulfur.

The Pomerol Château Gombaude Guillot wine is a splendid expression of a great terroir. An essential label for those who want to approach and appreciate one of the reds that has been a protagonist of the world elite for centuries. In appearance, it presents a beautiful dark ruby color with slight garnet reflections. Intense and elegant, it reveals aromas of currants, cherry, wild blackberry, marasca, hints of medicinal herbs, soft spices, notes of vanilla, and noble woods. Structured and deep, it possesses good aromatic complexity, rich fruit, and a long and persistent finish.
