An attractive colour, oscillating between crimson and purple, the wine reveals a fresh nose characterised by the elegance of light oaking and intense red fruit aromas. After a supple and pleasant attack, the 2014 vintage shows itself to be a nicely balanced wine on fruit-forward notes underpinned by well-integrated tannins, ending on a long and elegant finish.

Château de Sales is located in the north-west of the Pomerol appellation. With 47.6 hectares under vine out of the 90 hectares that make up the property, it is the largest vineyard in the Pomerol appellation. Except for three hectares that were lost during the French Revolution, the property limits are the same as they were in 1464.

The majority of vines are Merlot (73%) which, combined with Cabernet Sauvignon (15%) and Cabernet Franc (12%), finds its full expression in a terroir of gravel and heat-retaining sand which also contains iron oxide.
