Pomerol (French pronunciation: [pɔmʁɔl]; Occitan: Pomairòus) is a commune in the Gironde department in Nouvelle-Aquitaine near Bordeaux in southwestern France.

With only 800 hectares (2,000 acres), Pomerol is the smallest wine producing area in the Bordeaux region.

As in the neighbouring appellation of Saint-Émilion, the predominant grape variety is Merlot, often with Cabernet Franc and smaller quantities of Cabernet Sauvignon.

Unlike other Bordeaux regions, Pomerol has no official wine ranking or classification.

The next-door and slightly larger "satellite" appellation of Lalande-de-Pomerol produces similar wines which are shorter-lived and less expensive.
