Tasting:
Chateau de Viaud Lalande is a dense and concentrated wine on the nose, on black fruit aromas.
In mouth, this Lalande is velvety, with a good concentration and very balanced. It is distinguished by its delicate tannins thanks to a intelligent ageing. Pure, dense fruit with a long finish.
This wine pairs well with…

The origin of the vineyard of Viaud Lalande would be the 17th century. The Chateau itself was built at the end of the 18th century. The upper floor, and the tower which was used as a water tower, were added during the 19th century.
The Durand Teyssier family bought this estate in 1962. In 1965, Philippe’s father took over the Chateau and had to figure out how to sustain the Chateau itself. He decided to plant vines on a part of the parc (a bit more than 1 hectare). The money that would come from the wine sales would pay for the maintenance of the house.
