Description
A full-bodied and balanced red wine from Pomerol
The property
Located in the Pomerol appellation, the Château La Cabanne has belonged to the Jean-Pierre Estager family since 1952. This ancient property bears witness to deeply rooted viticulture, as vines have been cultivated there since the Gallo-Roman era. The name of Château La Cabanne is associated with the era of the old Serfs and Colonists who worked in the vineyards at the time. Following a fire in 2010, Château La Cabanne underwent a complete renovation. Since 2011, the property has been equipped with a high-performance work tool that allows it to produce wines that live up to its great terroir.
The vineyard
The vineyard of Château La Cabanne extends over 10 hectares of vines located on the western slope of the Pomerol plateau. The vines are planted on clay soils, including the famous blue clay veins of Pomerol, while the subsoil is made up of clinker with the presence of various metallic oxides. The vineyard has the HVE level 3 certification (High Environmental Value Level 3). The grape variety of the Château La Cabanne vineyard is typical of the Pomerol appellation with a majority presence of merlot (94%), complemented by cabernet franc (6%).
