The land of my ancestors (1610) but vines and wines were not like a religion for me but it became a passion when I took over the vineyard.
Eager to carry the history of the estate I decided to preserve the identity of the grand vin de bordeaux of keeping a high proportion of merlot which is the grape variety which fit the best with my terroir.
Vintages come and go and never quite the same. This is the magic of a great terroir which is renewed and enriched buy a capricious climate.
Each of these years contributes to the history of the Château DALEM.
There no lesser quality vintages only different vintages.
Château DALEM style is the alliance an audacious grape variety and an outstanding terroir.
It is that unique character that comes from the slopes of Fronsac and the highest proportion of merlot that is always a joy to find in each vintage, year after year .
