Domaine de la Violette is located in Pomerol and owes its name to the unique aromas conferred by its terroir.
The 3.25 hectare estate was acquired by Catherine Péré-Vergé after Châteaux Montviel, Fontenil and le Gay in 2002.
The subsoil has crasse de fer (iron-rich hardpan) typical of the greatest wines of Pomerol. The average age of the vines (100% Merlot) is 40 years.
Château la Violette is particularly rare due to its small size. The wine has a very refined bouquet. It is rich, powerful and round on the palate, with elegant, silky tannin.
