Château Des Annereaux – Lalande de Pomerol – Organic wine

The history of the estate is long and rich, starting in the 14th century. The descendants of the Annereaux family have exploited the lands of their ancestors without interruption. In 2004, the heirs of Jean Milhade, who still hold half of the shares of the former indivision, want to sell their shares. Dominique and Marie Hélène Hessel buy them, thus bringing back together the family estate.

Concerned to protect the quality of its soil by practicing a clean viticulture, Dominique Hessel is imperative to make the approach of the Qualification under the Reasoned Agriculture, that it obtains in 2005. To go to the end of this environmental step, the move to Organic Farming is the new goal. The year 2007 marks the first of three years of work in Bio, called conversion, before obtaining the Qualification. After three years of efforts to master organic farming, 2010 may carry the “AB” logo on its label.
