Grown on deep clay, this Bordeaux red offers a profound density and a magical finesse that rivals its more famous, and often pricier, Right Bank neighbours. A truly outstanding wine for the sophisticated British palate.<\/p>\n<h2>The Sommelier's Tasting Notes<\/h2>\n<p>A classic Merlot-dominant blend, showcasing elegance and structure:<\/p>\n<ul>\n<li><strong>Appearance:<\/strong> Deep, lustrous garnet.<\/li>\n<li><strong>Aroma:<\/strong> A brooding, complex nose of black plum, mulberry, licorice, and subtle earthy notes reminiscent of tar and mossy bark.<\/li>\n<li><strong>Palate:<\/strong> Medium to full-bodied with a soft texture, fine, grippy tannins, and a lively backbone. The finish is long, saline, and incredibly refined.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<h2>Serving Suggestions &amp; Pairing<\/h2>\n<p>We recommend decanting for an hour to allow the full aromatic complexity to unfold. Serve slightly below room temperature (17\u00b0C).<\/p>\n<ul>\n<li>Pairings: Traditional Beef Wellington, Roast Lamb with all the trimmings, Game Pie, and fine Mature Cheddar.<\/li>\n<li>Ageing: Will reward cellaring for up to two decades.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<p>Lalande-de-Pomerol 2023<br \/><a href=\"https:\/\/winetorres.com\/en\/?s=Ch\u00e2teau%20Les%20Cruzelles&#038;post_type=product\">Find other wines from this producer.<\/a><\/p>\n\n    <div class=\"xs_social_share_widget xs_share_url after_content \t\tmain_content  wslu-style-1 wslu-share-box-shaped wslu-fill-colored wslu-none wslu-share-horizontal wslu-theme-font-no wslu-main_content\">\n\n\t\t\n        <ul>\n\t\t\t        <\/ul>\n    <\/div> \n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Incarnation de l&#8217;excellence de Lalande-de-Pomerol, ce vin est une \u0153uvre d&#8217;art sign\u00e9e par la famille Durantou.
