Situated on the edge of the village of Lalande de Pomerol, Château Perron dates back to 1647 and is one of the oldest properties in the appellation. It has belonged to the Massonie family for three generations and was, until the late 1990s, run by the well-known and well respected Michel Massonie, who not only founded the wine brotherhood of Lalande de Pomerol and was its first Bailli, but who is also the current President of the Grand Conseil des Vins de Bordeaux. In 1999, Michel Massonie's son, Bertrand, took over the day-to-day management of the property.

This merlot-dominant blend is plush and plummy with an excellent depth of fruit and velvety tannins. A spiced woodiness on the finish lends to its complexity. Pair with entrecôte à la bordelaise, quail stuffed with mushrooms or grilled pork tenderloins. Drink now to 2029. 

"Bold tannins and layers of black fruits come through strongly in this impressive Merlot-dominated wine. It has a dense, still young texture that will develop well. Drink this promising, structured wine from 2025." 92/100 Wine Enthusiast (March 2024).
