Domaine de l’Eglise is the oldest estate on Pomerol’s famous plateau, first mentioned in the Vieux Papiers du Libournaisin 1589. Originally the property of the church, the estate was secularised in the 18th century. Domaine de l’Eglise lies next to Pomerol’s church a stones throw away from Château Petrus. In 1973 the château was acquired by the Castéja family. The round, fruity Domaine de l’Eglise wine has been among the most sought after in Pomerol for many years.
Fermentation took place in thermo regulated vats, followed by maturation in French oak barriques for a period of 16 to 18 months. 60% of the barriques were new.
