Château de Viaud
Château de Viaud produces wines from Bordeaux, drawing on the region's classic blend traditions. The winery's portfolio centers on Lalande-de-Pomerol, a Right Bank appellation known for its clay and iron-rich soils that suit Merlot, Cabernet Franc, and supporting varieties. Château du Grand Chambellan Lalande-de-Pomerol, a blend of Malbec, Cabernet Sauvignon, Petit Verdot, Merlot, and Cabernet Franc, has earned recognition from Decanter and Wine Spectator. The flagship Lalande de Pomerol, built from Cabernet Franc, Cabernet Sauvignon, Merlot, Malbec, and Petit Verdot, reflects the appellation's character: structured reds with depth and aging potential. Both wines demonstrate the winery's commitment to the Bordeaux blend formula, balancing power with the textural complexity that defines the region's best expressions.
