Winery Profile

Pomerol A.C.

Traditionally it played the role of being Pomerol's number two - behind Petrus, but totally different to it. Now there is a bunch of properties trying to ape Petrus - Le Pin and Trotanoy are just two - but no one tries to ape VCC. It is owned by the Thienpont family and, although it is only just down the road from Petrus, its soils is different, mixing sand and gravel with its clay. But most importantly it has only 60% Merlot as against Petrus' virtually 100%. The rest of the 13.5ha vineyard is 30% Cabernet Franc and 10% Cabernet Sauvignon, and it is this unusually strong presence for Pomerol of Cabernet which makes the VCC style drier, leaner, less sumptuous. The slow maturing wine gradually builds up over 15-20 years into an exciting `Medoc` blend of blackcurrant and cedarwood perfume just offset by the brown sugar and roasted nuts of Pomerol. Best Years: 2010, 09, 08, 07, 06, 05, 04, 02, 01, 00, 99, 98, 96, 95, 90, 89, 88, 86, 85.

Cellar Condition

Provenance; “Place of origin; derivation”

  • The history of the ownership of an object, especially when documented or authenticated. Used for Artworks, Antiques, and Wine.
  • The records or documents authenticating such an object or the history of its ownership.

Whenever you buy wine there is an inherent risk, as wine is a perishable good regardless of whether it is sealed under cork or screwcap. At GraysOnline we minimise the risk to you by providing as much information as possible regarding the provenance of the wine we sell.

We take the time to individually inspect each bottle and photograph it so you know exactly what you are buying. All Private Cellar wine stored at GraysOnline is kept in a temperature controlled wine storage area. Any wine that doesn’t meet our quality standards will not be sold.

★ ★ ★ ★ ★

Wines displaying a 5 star designation are recognised as being of proven quality provenance, our team has verified that the wine has been stored correctly from original purchase straight from the winery, documentation, where possible, has been sighted and cellaring conditions have been inspected. This wine generally comes from only the best and most respected of wine collectors in Australia.

★ ★ ★ ★

Wines displaying a 4 star designation have been cellared correctly as verified by the current owners. In general these wines have been purchased from retailers or traders and stored in cellared conditions from original purchase.

★ ★ ★

Wines displaying a 3 star designation are in good condition when we inspect and we are able to confirm some cellaring conditions but we are unable to verify all ownership and storage conditions of their history.

A wine displaying no stars doesn’t mean that there is a problem with the wine, it simply means that we have been unable to verify provenance, however a quality image is always available for the purchaser to make their own purchasing decisions.

Private Cellar wine is wine which has been stored for aging purposes in a Private Cellar.

Storing the wine and allowing it to age has the potential to improve the quality of the wine. While wine is perishable and capable of deteriorating, storing the wine can alter the aroma, colour, mouthfeel and taste of the wine in a way that may be more pleasing to the taster.
