Château La Création, near renowned châteaux like Petrus and Le Pin in Pomerol, has been owned by the esteemed de Gaye family since 2012. They also possess Châteaux Grand Corbin Manuel and Château Saint Barbe. The estate spans 4.60 hectares with Merlot, Cab Franc, and Cab Sauvignon vines, averaging 45 years in age. Meticulous hand-harvesting and precise vinification techniques contribute to their exceptional Pomerol wines. Following a cold maceration, traditional vinification occurs in temperature-controlled concrete vats, followed by gentle maturation in French oak barrels. The 2012 acquisition prompted significant renovations, restoring Château La Création to its former splendor, resulting in a refined, characteristic Pomerol wine.
