"This mainly Merlot wine has firm tannins as well as rich black fruits. With good potential, the wine's structure balances with the density and berry flavors to promise future opulence and complexity. Drink the wine from 2022." - Wine Enthusiast - 90 points

Château Tournefeuille is located on a unique clay-gravel slope in the village of Néac. The vineyard has stunning views of the famous Pomerol terroirs and the legendary Petrus plateau. The grapes are planted on south-facing slopes resting on expansive clay and offering plenty of water regulation. The wines here are characterised by their roundness and density, their power and length with Merlot reigning supreme here. There is a gravelly outcrop that forms at the top of the hillside where the grapes ripen early, perfect terroir for Cabernets Franc and Cabernet Sauvignon, which adds elegance and complexity to the wine blend.

The 2017 Château Tournefeuille Lalande de Pomerol blend of 74% Merlot, 24% Cabernet Franc and 2% Cabernet Sauvignon. The wine is matured 18 months, with 80% of the wine aged in French oak barrels and 20% in vats.
