About this Item
Le Chanade from Lalande de Pomerol was founded by Denis Durantou, Pomerol-based and owning several important Bordeaux properties led by L'Église Clinet. The man himself was regarded as one of the leading winemakers in all of Bordeaux. He passed away in 2020 at the age of 62, and the business is now run by his three daughters, Noëmie, Alix and Constance with their mother, the artist Marie Reilhac. The wines continue to attract great acclaim.

Critics Ratings
‘The 2014 La Chenade has a reserved but well defined bouquet with earthy red and black fruit, hints of truffle oil and sage, gaining a little intensity with aeration. The palate is medium-bodied with firm and quite strict tannin. This is rather aloof and distant and yet it is undeniably well defined and fascinating, a Pomerol that clearly needs some bottle age. Tasted blind at the annual Southwold tasting. Drink 2021 - 2035.’ – Neal Martin, Vinous, 91/100 (Mar 2018)
‘Tasted blind. Meat and two veg on the nose. Lots of life and freshness. Quite forward aromatically. Though admittedly there are still lots of tannins. Clean and minty – fresh as a mountain stream.’ – Jancis Robinson, JancisRobinson.com, 16.5/20 (Feb 2018)
