B175 CH.HOSANNA POMEROL 2021 750ml

Château Hosanna, a jewel-like vineyard of just 4.5 hectares, is located in the heart of Pomerol’s central plateau, adjacent to some of the most illustrious crus of the appellation: Château Lafleur to the north, Château Pétrus to the east, Château La Fleur-Pétrus to the west, and Vieux Château Certan to the south.

The vineyard enjoys a terroir of red gravel and clay on crasse de fer, which is known for producing wines of great elegance, complexity, and power. Old Cabernet Franc vines, a significant portion of which date back to 1956, contribute a unique complexity to the cru.

A marriage of intensity, purity, and balance, its silky touch has led some to describe Hosanna as the feminine counterpart to Trotanoy. (Moueix home page)
