Château Hosanna is one of the more underrated estates in Pomerol having only existed in name since its purchase in 1999 by the Moueix family. Though many others seriously struggled with frost damage in 2017, Hosanna saw reduced yields but have released and exceptional wine. Composed of 80% Merlot and 20% Cabernet Franc, it is medium to full-bodied, rich and bold, delivering gorgeous waves of deep black fruits, spices and dried flowers. Supple, fresh and exceptionally long, this should have a wonderful trajectory over the next few decades.
