LALANDE-DE-POMEROL, LIBOURNE’S WELL-GUARDED SECRET BY CAMILLE BERNARD PHOTOGRAPHS: COURTESY OF THE ESTATES, QUENTIN SALINIER Founded just over 25 years ago in response to increased demand for Rioja wines internationally, family-run bodega Criadores de Rioja has always kept a watchful eye on overseas markets. Its wines encapsulate a fusion of tradition and modernity and the winery has successfully kept abreast of changing demand and consumer patterns. With its appeal continuing to extend way beyond national borders, it offers a fine illustration of the vitality of this famous Spanish appellation and its ability to reinvent itself.

LIBOURNAIS APPELLATION IRON OXIDE SOILS IN THE VINEYARDS OF LALANDE-DE-POMEROL treasure hidden by its neighbouring appellation, Lalande-de-Pomerol shows stunning A potential and a unique rendition of Merlot. Despite its proximity to the illustrious Pomerol appellation, it is often sidelined on Bordeaux’s wine scene. This does not stop the winegrowers who put their heart and soul into growing vines here, however, from crafting wines that display undeniable quality. We spoke to some of them to find out more. Thirty kilometres from Bordeaux, in the wine region of Libourne, the Lalande-de-Pomerol appellation extends over 1,100 hectares under vine divided between the namesake village and Néac. A ‘satellite’ of the prestigious Pomerol appellation, with only the river Barbanne separating the two, it covers soils which, like its illustrious neighbour, encompass gravel, clay and sand. Basking in a temperate ocean climate, these vineyard sites produce wines displaying elegant classicism, which are as delicate as they are age-worthy. Although these delicious pours compare favourably with those produced by their more renowned neighbour, they nevertheless struggle to shine out from behind its shadows. Their low-key profile makes them an appellation that deserves to be (re)discovered without further ado, if only for the pleasure of savouring wines produced by passionate, committed winegrowers who redouble their efforts to promote their vineyards. To gauge this, we met some of them who are not only fully aware of their appellation’s potential, but also aspire to a level of recognition commensurate with their commitment and their winegrowing expertise. Join us on a journey to the heart of a wine region with an assertive personality, and the cradle of wines which, once discovered, are never forgotten.
