Château Hosanna 2014

Hosanna 2014 is a refined, modern Right Bank Bordeaux that showcases the depth and elegance of top Pomerol in a fresh, accessible style. Crafted under the stewardship of the Moueix family, it marries concentration and precision with a seductive, layered complexity. This vintage stands out for its confident structure and polished tannins, promising both immediate pleasure and impressive evolution in the cellar.

Tasting Notes
In the glass, Hosanna 2014 shows a deep, vibrant ruby colour with a youthful sheen, hinting at its energy and aging potential. The nose opens with red and black fruits—crushed strawberries, blackcurrants and mulberries—wrapped in notes of menthol, fresh mint and Merlot leaf, supported by hints of clove, bay leaf, allspice, caramel and finely integrated new oak. On the palate, the wine is medium to full-bodied with a textbook Pomerol texture: ample, dry and firmly structured, yet polished. The fruit is concentrated and pure, combining red berry brightness with darker, more brooding black fruit. Fine, ripe tannins frame the core of fruit, while fresh acidity keeps everything lively and precise. Subtle spice, dark chocolate undertones and freshly ground black pepper linger on a long, sapid finish that balances elegance with density. Already appealing, this 2014 has the structure and complexity to develop further over the next 10–15 years, gaining greater aromatic nuance and harmony with time in bottle.

Production
Hosanna is situated on Pomerol’s prized plateau in Bordeaux, where vines sink their roots into a mosaic of gravel, clay and iron-rich subsoils that naturally favour Merlot and Cabernet Franc of great intensity. The grapes are carefully harvested by hand, with strict selection to ensure only perfectly ripe fruit reaches the cellar. In keeping with the estate’s philosophy of precision and purity, fermentation takes place in temperature-controlled vats, parcel by parcel, to preserve the character of each plot. The wine is then matured in a high proportion of French oak barriques, including a significant percentage of new oak, which lends subtle notes of spice and toast while respecting the natural fruit expression and velvety texture typical of great Pomerol.

Food & Serving
Hosanna 2014 pairs beautifully with refined, savoury dishes that can stand up to its structure and depth: think roast lamb with herbs, beef tenderloin, duck breast, game birds, or a slow-braised veal or beef stew. It also complements earthy accompaniments such as truffle-infused dishes, wild mushrooms, and aged hard cheeses. Serve at 16–18°C (60–64°F) for optimal balance of fruit and structure. Decanting for 1–2 hours before serving will help the wine open up its aromatics—menthol, spice and complex fruit—especially at this stage of its evolution.

Producer
Château Hosanna is one of the jewels in the portfolio of Jean-Pierre Moueix, the historic Pomerol and Saint-Émilion specialist whose family has shaped the reputation of the Right Bank for decades. Created in its current form at the turn of the 21st century from some of Pomerol’s most coveted vineyard parcels, Hosanna quickly established itself as a reference estate, producing limited quantities of richly textured, ageworthy wines. Its privileged location on the Pomerol plateau and meticulous vineyard and cellar work have earned it a reputation for combining power with finesse, and its wines are now sought after by collectors and enthusiasts who value both classic Bordeaux structure and modern precision.
