Vignobles Lassagne - Château Maltus Lalande de Pomerol 2022 (750ml) Languedoc Pays d'Oc Cabernet SauvignonHistory tells us that the origin of the Chateau Maltus goes back to the Middle Ages, in the time of the crusades. The Order of Malta, well implanted on the land named Lalande de Pomerol, cultivated vines for the first time on the grounds of the Chateau Maltus. Nicolas Lassagne acquired this parcel (2. 5 ha; 6. 17 acres) in 2015. The Lalande de Pomerol AOC is 1,100 hectares in size, producing more than 500,000 cases per year. Beautiful sustained deep

menthol and pine-y freshness – it’s taut

blackberries

are tended organically with biodynamic practices and the grapes are vinified simply: the bunches are pressed whole-cluster and fermented with native yeasts in steel

licorice and sexy oak

with very fine Riesling and crispy-salty slate expressions

The ample mid-palate abounds in black fruit along with cocoa flavours and biscuity notes

It would be one heck of a steak house red and is well made

concentrating the flavours in the berries

from 3/5 of the original estate and the heart of the domain
