{"product_id":"hosanna-2011-75-cl","title":"Château Hosanna 2011","description":"\u003cp\u003eHosanna 2011 is a refined, silk-textured red from the right bank of Bordeaux, capturing the seductive charm of top Pomerol in a slightly more understated, elegant vintage. It offers immediate pleasure with its aromatic complexity and supple tannins, yet still has the structure to reward further cellaring. This is a wine for those who value nuance, perfume and finesse over sheer power.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eTasting Notes\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003cbr\u003eIn the glass, Hosanna 2011 shows a deep, vibrant ruby core with just the first hints of garnet at the rim, reflecting its graceful evolution. The nose is elegant and aromatic, opening with ripe blackberry, wild strawberry and black raspberry, layered with notes of black cherry, clove, lilac, lily and a touch of forest floor. Subtle hints of mushroom, nutmeg, sweet spice and a whisper of licorice add depth and complexity as it unfolds in the glass.\n\nOn the palate, the wine is medium to full-bodied, silky and beautifully balanced, combining ripe, dark berry fruit with a line of fresh acidity and fine, polished tannins. Flavors of wild blackberry, black cherry and wild strawberry are intertwined with clove, dried blueberry, licorice and floral tones of violet and lily. There is a clear mineral freshness and tension that keeps the wine lively and precise, leading into a long, refined finish with lingering fruit and spice. Already highly enjoyable, the 2011 has the structure to age gracefully for another 8–12 years from now, gaining even more tertiary complexity.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eProduction\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003cbr\u003eHosanna is situated on some of Pomerol’s most prized terroir, where gravelly and clay-rich soils, streaked with iron-rich subsoils, give Merlot and Cabernet Franc both opulence and lift. Grapes are typically harvested by hand in small crates to ensure meticulous selection in the vineyard, followed by careful sorting at the winery. Fermentation takes place in temperature-controlled vats to preserve purity of fruit and aromatic detail, with gentle extraction to emphasize finesse over heaviness. The wine is then aged in French oak barrels, a significant proportion new, where it harmonizes, gains texture and integrates its complex bouquet before bottling.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eFood \u0026amp; Serving\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003cbr\u003eHosanna 2011 is a classic partner for refined dishes such as roasted lamb, beef tenderloin, venison, duck breast or veal with morel or truffle sauces. It also shines alongside mushroom-based dishes, game birds, and aged hard cheeses like Comté or Parmigiano Reggiano. Serve at 16–18°C (60–64°F) to highlight its aromatic complexity and silky texture. This vintage benefits from decanting: pour into a carafe 1–2 hours before serving to allow the bouquet to fully open and the tannins to soften.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eProducer\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003cbr\u003eChâteau Hosanna is one of Pomerol’s most intriguing and sought-after estates, brought to prominence under the stewardship of the Moueix family, who are behind some of the right bank’s most legendary wines.
