Winery Château Hosanna

Château Hosanna is part of the prestigious Moueix portfolio and is situated in an exceptional location in the heart of Pomerol. The estate was formed in the late 1990s from a merger of historic plots and has since built a reputation as a producer of powerful yet refined Pomerols. The vineyards benefit from a terroir with red and blue clay, gravel, and ferrous subsoils, resulting in depth, complexity, and striking aromatic intensity. More information about this winery can be found under the Winery tab.

The wine and blend

The 2025 Château Hosanna consists of 74% Merlot and 26% Cabernet Franc. The high presence of Cabernet Franc plays a key role in the wine's freshness, structure, and aromatic complexity. While Merlot provides the rich texture and deep fruit expression, Cabernet Franc delivers tension, floral nuances, and extra length.

Vineyard, terroir and vintage

The Hosanna vineyards are among the most favorably situated in Pomerol. The combination of clay and gravel offered sufficient protection against drought stress during the warm and dry growing season of 2025, allowing the grapes to retain their freshness and aromatic precision.

The result is a wine that possesses the concentration of the vintage, yet remains remarkably balanced. Several critics point to the combination of power and refinement, where the wine, despite its intensity, never comes across as heavy or sluggish.

Vinification and aging

As is customary at Hosanna, a meticulous plot selection is employed, along with a vinification aimed at preserving fruit purity and terroir expression. Extraction remains controlled to preserve the silky texture of the tannins, while allowing the natural concentration of the vintage to fully come into its own.

Color, smell and taste

Deep ruby red in color. The nose opens with intense aromas of wild blueberries, blackberries, and cassis, followed by notes of clove, licorice, dark chocolate, espresso, and subtle spices. As the wine opens up, additional layers of black olive, coffee beans, and floral accents emerge.

On the palate, the wine is medium to full-bodied with impressive concentration. The texture is creamy and silky, supported by refined, open tannins. Dark fruit, cocoa, spices, and subtle minerality are carried by a fresh core that gives the wine tension and energy. Despite the richness, the balance remains exemplary. The finish is long, powerful, and at the same time remarkably refined.
