Château La Pointe

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

Château La Pointe sits in Pomerol, the heart of Bordeaux's Right Bank, where clay and iron-rich soils nurture Merlot into wines of depth and texture. The estate's flagship Pomerol blends Merlot with Cabernet Franc, capturing the region's signature richness—a wine that has drawn assessment from Decanter, Wine Spectator, Wine Enthusiast, Falstaff, and Wine Advocate. The Ballade de La Pointe, also built on Cabernet Franc and Merlot, offers a secondary expression of the terroir. Both wines reflect Pomerol's character: supple tannins, dark fruit, and the mineral undertones that distinguish this appellation from its Médoc neighbors. The winery's output centers on these two bottlings, each a study in how Right Bank Bordeaux translates soil and vintage into glass.
