Pomerol

Pomerol is a much-respected red wine appellation in the Bordeaux region of southwestern France. Pomerol is located in the east of the Bordeaux region, near Saint-Émilion, in the area known as the Libournais – the town of Libourne sits just to the south of Pomerol. While most appellations are named after a village or city within their boundaries, Pomerol has no such epicenter. It is an unchanging 800-hectare gravel bank. The total vineyard area of the appellation covers approximately 792 hectares.


The south and west of Pomerol have sandier soils than the slightly heavier soils in the east, including a certain proportion of clay. In this eastern section, on the marginally higher land where Pomerol meets Saint-Émilion, the best wines are produced. Three of the most highly regarded Pomerol producers such as châteaux Pétrus, Lafleur, and Le Pin.


Merlot is the dominant grape in Pomerol and plays a large part in making the wines rich, smooth, and approachable at an early age while also being capable of extended aging. Cabernet Franc is also often present, adding structure and an element of savory spice. These characteristics mean Pomerol wines are much sought after on the international market.


These renowned wines are aromatic, complex, and elegant. They are usually ruby red with aromas reminiscent of red fruit. Pomerol wines would go well with braised, roasted, or grilled meat dishes, especially beef, game, or veal. Pomerol's place in the international wine world is secure for some time to come, given the continuing increase in demand for prestigious wines and the limited production of this small, quality-focused appellation.
