The vineyards sit on a fantastic mix of sandy gravel and iron-rich clay soils, which provide the perfect environment for growing world-class \u003cb data-path-to-node=\"2\" data-index-in-node=\"334\"\u003eMerlot\u003c\/b\u003e. These deep, ancient soils naturally restrict the vines, forcing them to concentrate all their energy into producing small, intensely flavoured grapes.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp data-path-to-node=\"3\"\u003eThe estate itself holds a remarkable place in local history. The original stone château was built back in 1642, making it one of the very oldest buildings in the commune of Néac. The Massonie family has carefully managed these historic vineyards for several generations, preserving traditional farming methods while quietly modernising the cellar to ensure their \u003cb data-path-to-node=\"3\" data-index-in-node=\"363\"\u003eFrench red wine\u003c\/b\u003e remains incredibly pure and expressive.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp data-path-to-node=\"4\"\u003eWhat makes this particular corner of Bordeaux so appealing to everyday drinkers is the wonderfully approachable style of the wine. Because the final blend usually includes a touch of \u003cb data-path-to-node=\"4\" data-index-in-node=\"183\"\u003eCabernet Franc\u003c\/b\u003e and \u003cb data-path-to-node=\"4\" data-index-in-node=\"202\"\u003eCabernet Sauvignon\u003c\/b\u003e alongside the dominant Merlot, the wines strike a brilliant balance between rich dark fruit and a fresh, lively structure. They offer all the luxurious, velvety texture you would expect from the famous neighbouring region of Pomerol, but often with a much softer and more welcoming character in their youth.\u003c\/p\u003e","products":[{"product_id":"chateau-perron-lalande-de-pomerol","title":"Château Perron Lalande-de-Pomerol 2022","description":"\u003cp data-path-to-node=\"3\"\u003eCrafted from vines growing in the iron-rich clay and sandy gravel around the commune of Néac, the \u003cb data-path-to-node=\"3\" data-index-in-node=\"119\"\u003eChâteau Perron Grand Vin\u003c\/b\u003e is a masterful expression of the \u003cb data-path-to-node=\"3\" data-index-in-node=\"177\"\u003eLalande-de-Pomerol\u003c\/b\u003e appellation. The Massonie family carefully selects the finest fruit from their oldest plots to create a deeply concentrated \u003cb data-path-to-node=\"3\" data-index-in-node=\"320\"\u003ered wine\u003c\/b\u003e that completely captures the character of these historic soils. Pouring a brilliant dark ruby, the aroma immediately reveals intense layers of crushed blackberry, ripe plum, and a touch of wild earth. The wine is built around a dominant core of \u003cb data-path-to-node=\"4\" data-index-in-node=\"196\"\u003eMerlot (80%)\u003c\/b\u003e, perfectly supported by equal touches of \u003cb data-path-to-node=\"4\" data-index-in-node=\"256\"\u003eCabernet Franc (10%)\u003c\/b\u003e and \u003cb data-path-to-node=\"4\" data-index-in-node=\"275\"\u003eCabernet Sauvignon (10%)\u003c\/b\u003e. This precise blend ensures the rich, velvety texture of the Merlot is beautifully balanced by a fresh, lively structure. Extended time resting in French oak barrels softens the edges, bringing forward darker notes of roasted coffee bean, dark chocolate, and subtle woodland spices. Such a bold and elegantly structured \u003cb data-path-to-node=\"5\" data-index-in-node=\"37\"\u003eFrench red wine\u003c\/b\u003e demands equally robust food to match its intensity. The rich tannin structure cuts beautifully through slow-cooked meats and savoury gravies. Try serving it alongside a classic beef Wellington, a rich venison casserole, or a generous cut of roast beef with all the trimmings. [#intro]\u003cmeta charset=\"utf-8\"\u003eA wonderfully rich and velvety red wine offering deep plum and dark chocolate notes throughout...[\/intro]\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Château Perron","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":58939315323261,"sku":"A22CHATEAUPERRON","price":29.0,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0106\/1539\/0266\/files\/ChateauPerronGrandVinBT.jpg?v=1792435543"}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0106\/1539\/0266\/collections\/Chateau_Perron_Logo.jpg?v=1792430002","url":"https:\/\/hic.wine\/collections\/chateau-perron.oembed","provider":"Hic!","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
