NOTABLE · CRITICS' CONSENSUS

Pomerol Cabernet Franc and Merlot from the Right Bank's clay-rich heartland.

Château Franc-Maillet sits in Pomerol, the heart of Libournais in Bordeaux, where clay and iron-rich soils shape wines of depth and structure. The estate works with Cabernet Franc and Merlot, the classic pairing of the Right Bank. L'Esquive de Franc-Maillet, the flagship, blends these varieties into a wine that has drawn assessment from Wine Enthusiast, Decanter, Wine Spectator, Wine Advocate, and Falstaff. The Cuvée Montille follows a similar composition, as does the core Pomerol bottling. All three reflect the region's signature character: wines built on ripe fruit and tannin, with the mineral undertone that Pomerol's terroir imparts. The winery's releases show the precision expected of serious Bordeaux production.
