[\/vc_column_text][vc_separator type=”transparent” up=”60″ down=”10″][vc_column_text el_class=”justif”]Pomerol was created by the Isle river<\/strong>. Material was deposited during the Middle Pleistocene due to erosion of the Pyrenees and the Massif Central. There are three distinct zones within the Pomerol terroir. First there is the plateau, with higher levels of clay, then the start of the plateau edge where clay remains very present but is mixed with pebbles, and finally the series of terraces, created by erosion caused by the Isle to the west and south and by the Barbanne to the north. The Pomerol soils are rich in iron oxide deposits, known as \u2018crasse de fer\u2019. It is widely accepted that this is part of what gives Pomerol wines their typical style.<\/p>\n
