About Chateau des Ormeaux Chateau des Ormeaux is a small 3.6 hectare organically farmed estate in the commune of Néac, within Bordeaux's Lalande de Pomerol appellation, right next to legendary Pomerol. Winemaking is directed by vigneron Julien Richard with consulting from Michel Rolland, one of the most influential winemakers of the modern era. The wine is vinified traditionally and aged across a mix of mid sized oak barrels, concrete tanks, and clay amphorae, an approach that keeps the fruit pure while building texture and complexity.
Why the 2020 vintage matters 2020 was a strong year on Bordeaux's Right Bank, yielding concentrated, well structured wines with real balance. A warm, dry summer brought in ripe fruit with enough acidity to age well. It's approachable now and built to keep evolving in the cellar.
