Producer Château Gombaude-Guillot

FRANCE, POMEROL

Château Gombaude-Guillot is a family-run business in the heart of the Pomerol plateau, located on the right bank of the Gironde and has always been suited for the production of unforgettable Merlot-based wines. Since 1997 the Château has opted for purely organic cultivation and since 2006 has followed the principles of biodynamics. Olivier, a native of those areas, decides to give a different vision of Bordeaux wine: he decides to cultivate in a way that is more consistent with quality work (yields, quantities, complete exclusion of chemistry-mechanization) and above all gives space to refinement methods (cement, amphora, absence of pumps in the cellar) and styles completely in contrast with the historical way of making wine in those lands.
