Description
Château Hosanna comes from the Moueix stable - yes, to which Chateau Petrus also belongs. It is believed that Hosanna has the potential to become the Cheval Blanc of his stable. This is partly due to the more than 40 year old Cabernet Franc vines comparable to those of Cheval Blanc in Saint-Emilion.
The 2019 Hosanna has lush aromas of sweet berry fruit, plum, spices and creamy new oak. Full-bodied, rich and velvety, it is broad and enveloping, with supple tannins and an abundant core of ripe, generously extracted fruit. Known for its finesse and structure, Hosanna is one of the newer additions to the Moueix portfolio.

Wijnhuis
Château Hosanna is located in the heart of Pomerol, in close proximity to some of the most famous wineries in Pomerol such as Château Petrus and Vieux-Château Certan. One of the most famous vintages of Château Hosanna is the Château Hosanna 2009, rated by many international reviewers with a very high point score.
The Château Hosanna estate has 4.5 hectares of territory, of which 70% is made up of Merlot vines and 30% of Cabernet Franc. Some Cabernet Franc vines have been on the territory since the mid-19th century. The vines are established on blue clay soils and red gravel on a so-called "crasse de fer" soil type, which is considered a fundamental element in the production of Pomerol wine.
The history of Château Hosanna dates back to the 16th century, when the De Mey family planted the first vines of Pomerol. The château was originally named as "Château Certan Giraud", which at the time was believed by many to have produced the best crus in Pomerol.
Château Certan Giraud consisted of two demarcated pieces of land, which were split after the château was taken over by Jean-Pierre Moueix in 1999. One of the pieces of estate was called Château Hosanna and the other Château Certan Marzelle. The latter was later resold, with which Château Hosanna has continued the success story of Jean-Pierre Moueix!
