Château La Chenade is the second wine of Chateau Les Cruzelles, in Lalande de Pomerol. The estate is owned by Denis Durantou, who also owns Château L’Eglise Clinet.

"The 2017 La Chenade has blossomed into a truly fabulous wine. Rich, ample and explosive in the glass, the 2017 possesses tremendous density from start to finish. A rush of super-ripe dark red/purplish fruit, spice, rose petal, licorice and menthol builds as this potent, voluptuous Lalande de Pomerol shows off its racy curves and sultry, alluring personality. The 2017 is sure to be a crowd pleaser. I loved it. La Chenade is 80% Merlot and 20% Cabernet Franc. 2020 - 2032." Antonio Galloni, 92 pts
