-POMEROL & LALANDE DE POMEROL AOC -
Lalande-de-Pomerol is an appellation in the Bordeaux wine region of south-west France. It covers red wines that are produced just to the north of the more-prestigious Pomerol appelation, in the area east of Bordeaux known as the Libournais.
The wines of Lalande-de-Pomerol are made predominantly from Merlot, but may also contain Cabernet Franc, Cabernet Sauvignon and Malbec. As with most of the right-bank appellations, it is the accessibility of Merlot that makes these wines so popular in the Today's market.
The two main villages of the appellation are Lalande-de-Pomerol and Néac. The vineyards around Néac are planted in soil that has a clay element as well as the gravelly component that is distinctive in Pomerol. Merlot grows more successfully in this type of soil, so it is here that the best Lalande-de-Pomerol wines are produced.
