The dark ruby/plum-tinged Jean de Gue reveals lots of black cherry fruit, an attractive mouthfeel and spicy oak. This is a well-made, medium-bodied red wine. Drink it over the next 3-5 years.
100% merlot from 1 hectare vineyard.
These are gravelly brown soils where the water table is deep; they are composed of sands, gravels and pebbles in a sandy-clay matrix.
The vineyard is cultivated in the traditional way, with parcel-by-parcel management: ploughing the soil, grassing, mixed farming… The plots are carefully selected to give optimum expression to local grape varieties. Mechanical leaf-thinning and green harvesting.
The grapes are destemmed and crushed, then cold-macerated for five days to extract maximum aromas. Alcoholic and malolactic fermentations are carried out in temperature-controlled tanks. Vatting at high temperature and final hot maceration lasts between 18 and 30 days, depending on the vat, to obtain maximum concentration and balance.
The wine is aged in oak barrels for 3 to 6 months, depending on the vintage, and bottled at the estate.
