Producer Information
Château Larmande is a historic Saint-Emilion Grand Cru Classé wine estate situated 1.6km (one mile) due north of Saint-Emilion town. Neighboring fellow Grand Cru Classé (and stablemate) Château Soutard, Larmande is one of the oldest wine-producing properties in the region, with vines documented at the estate as far back as 1569. It currently produces a Merlot-dominant Bordeaux blend and a second wine, La Cadet de Larmande. The estate spans 20 hectares (49 acres) of vineyards, planted to 65 percent Merlot, 30 percent Cabernet Franc and five percent Cabernet Sauvignon, with vines averaging 30 years old. The vineyard is composed primarily of ancient sands with smaller portions of clay-limestone and siliceous clay in the soil. Château Larmande's grand vin broadly mirrors the vineyard proportions of Merlot, Cabernet Franc and Cabernet Sauvignon. The grapes are vinified in stainless steel vats and aged in French oak barrels (of which around 60 percent are new) and amphorae for 18 months. Around 70,000 bottles of Château Larmande are produced annually. The château was owned by the Méneret and Capdemourlin families (owners of Château Cap de Mourlin) for decades before the French insurance company, La Mondiale, purchased Larmande in 1990. La Mondiale has since purchased Château Grand Faurie la Rose, Château Cadet Piola and Château Soutard – all in Saint-Emilion.
