Château Jucclarie Cuvée Les Zamandier [2020] 750ml, red

The westernmost point of Languedoc. A wine that combines the charms of southern France and Bordeaux.

Château Jucclarie is located in Cabardes, 10km north of Carcassonne in the western Languedoc. Robert Gianesny, a native of Carcassonne, purchased the winery and started it in 1969. Robert searched for various places to start making wine, and ended up in the vineyard of Guillaume de Jucraly, which was established in 1532. The vineyard, located on a hill at an altitude of about 100m on the southern slope of the Montagne Noir, has clay limestone soil with many pebbles, and the wine produced has a very concentrated taste. Currently, together with his son Pascal, he produces gorgeous wines that combine the charms of both southern France and Bordeaux every year.

Cabardes is the westernmost region of Languedoc and was recognized as an AOC in 1999. Winds blow from both directions throughout the year, with moist Mediterranean winds blowing from the east and dry cool breezes from the Atlantic Ocean blowing from the west. Therefore, the grapes are in a favorable environment where they can grow in good health without being affected by diseases. One of the characteristics of this area is the strong lime content and soil with many pebbles. Not only those from Languedoc but also Bordeaux varieties are recognized. Robert planted his first Merlot, Cabernet Sauvignon and Cabernet Franc in Cabardes more than 40 years ago. He currently serves as the chairman of the Cabardes Producers Committee and was instrumental in the AC certification of Cabardes. According to Robert, the Bordeaux variety grown in Cabardes produces wines with deep color, soft acidity, and rich, round flavors.

Château Juclarie currently owns 60ha of vineyards, 30ha in AC Cabardes and 30ha in IGP. Practicing rut raisonné by reducing yield to 35hl per ha. The fruit juice moves with gravity flow, making wine that is kind to the natural environment and grapes. We brew wine for a long time to fully extract the essence of the grapes, producing wine with a strong flavor. This chateau produces wine that will not disappoint, combining the bright fruit flavor characteristic of southern French wines with the rich body of Bordeaux wine.

It is characterized by elegant softness and smooth, rich tannins, with a lingering chocolate flavor and an attractive taste similar to Bordeaux wine.
