2018 | Château Hosanna | Pomerol (Double Magnum)

An intense, juicy red with lots of meat, berry, chocolate and walnut aromas and flavors. Pure fruit. It’s full-bodied and dense with lots of fine tannins and richness. So powerful and long. Super length. Very muscular, yet agile at the same time.

Reviews:

• Wine Advocate: The 2018 Hosanna is composed of 70% Merlot and 30% Cabernet Franc. Deep garnet-purple colored, the nose needs a bit of swirling and coaxing before it soars from the glass with compelling blue and black fruit scents of blueberry pie, blackberry preserves and stewed plums, plus hints of spice cake, unsmoked cigars and violets with a touch of cloves. The full-bodied palate shimmers with opulence, laden with black fruit preserves layers, supported by seductively plush tannins and seamless freshness, finishing long and oh-so-spicy. It is very tempting to drink now, but 3-5 years of patience will offer a little cerebral tertiary contribution to all that decadent fruit.

• Wine Spectator: This shows bay and tobacco leaf notes along the edges of a core of steeped plum and blackberry fruit. It all melds together through the finish, ending with an echo of warm earth.

Producer Information

Château Hosanna is a Bordeaux wine estate in the Pomerol appellation. It was created in 1999 when Château Certan Giraud was purchased by established Bordeaux négociant Établissements Jean-Pierre Moueix. One part was renamed Hosanna, with the other two hectares (five acres) becoming Château Certan Marzelle. The property faces Pétrus (also part of the Moueix stable) and lies between Lafleur and Vieux Château Certan.There are 4.5 hectares (11 acres) of vines at Hosanna, on soils made up of red gravel with layers of clay and some sand (the famed, iron-based "crasse de fer" soils of the appellation). The vineyard is planted with 70 percent Merlot and a relatively high 30 percent Cabernet Franc.
