Pomerol

Producers and Wine Reviews about the "Pomerol AOC" Informations about "Pomerol" in news+stories Show in wein.plus:places

The AOC area is located to the east of the small town of Libourne on the right bank of the Gironde in the French region of Bordeaux. The vineyards cover around 800 hectares of vines. To the north, the area is separated from the Lalande de Pomerol appellation by the River Barbanne. To the east is the Saint-Émilion area. The name comes from the Latin "pomarium" (orchard). The Romans were already cultivating vines here. The devastation caused by the Hundred Years' War (1338-1453) between the English and French led to viticulture being abandoned.
