Château La Croix-des-Moines
Château La Croix-des-Moines produces wine in Lalande-de-Pomerol, a Right Bank appellation in Bordeaux known for supple, fruit-forward reds built on Merlot. The estate's flagship Lalande-de-Pomerol blends Merlot with Cabernet Sauvignon, Petit Verdot, Malbec, and Cabernet Franc—a structure typical of the region's best expressions. The wine has been assessed by Wine Spectator, Wine Enthusiast, and Decanter. Lalande-de-Pomerol sits just north of Pomerol proper, where clay and iron-rich soils favor the dark, plush character Merlot achieves in this corner of Libournais. The blend's supporting varieties add backbone and aging potential, anchoring the wine's ripe fruit with tannin and complexity.
