Château Lafleur Sells 2025 Vintage as 'Vin de France' - First Vintage Without AOC Pomerol Designation
Château Lafleur, one of Pomerol's most respected names, has made a bold move by selling its 2025 vintage as 'Vin de France' rather than under the AOC Pomerol designation. The Guinaudeau family made the decision to gain more freedom in how they manage their vineyards, stepping away from the strict rules that come with appellation status. It's a significant moment that suggests even top-tier Bordeaux producers are feeling constrained by traditional French wine regulations.
