Before turning to the best vintages of the Pomerol wines<\/a>It's time to define what makes a good vintage. Grapes need sunlight to develop. The sun's rays strike the leaves of the vines, enabling them to synthesize sugars. This is called photosynthesis. The more sun there is, the greater the photosynthesis. But beware of excess, as this would make the grapes heavy, lack acidity and therefore balance.<\/p>\n > Order the best vintages of Pomerol <<\/a><\/strong><\/p>\n<\/blockquote>\n If we had to name one Top 5 Pomerol vintages<\/strong> :<\/p>\n <\/p>\n A summer rich in sunshine and perfect rainfall to produce grapes abundant in juice.<\/p>\n Ch\u00e2teau Rouget 1970<\/strong>\u00a0One of the oldest houses in the appellation.
