Château de Sales 1996
The wine
The sandy-gravelly soil of château de Sales gives us this supple and silky wine. As only a small part of the wine is aged in barrels, the cru unfurls a very subtle woodiness and has the advantage of being appreciated when young.
Located in the north-west of the appellation, Sales de is one the finest châteaux in the region. It has the largest vineyard in Pomerol.
