Winemaking notes
Around Jonquières is the great cuvée of the Mas Jullien estate and also the place where the estate is located, about forty kilometers north of Montpellier on the Terrasses-du-Larzac. Made from a blend of Carignan, Mourvèdre and Syrah, aged 24 months separately in barrels and vats, then another year in bottles.
Viticultural notes
Around-de-Jonquières corresponds to the original terroir of Mas Jullien on plots mainly of limestone scree. Carlan comes from shales of 200 to 400 meters above sea level, lous-rougeos comes from high altitude terroirs that were almost abandoned, at the foot of the collapse zone of the Larzac plateau.
Tasting notes
It is by tasting Autour de Jonquières that we most clearly grasp the spirit of the estate. This frank wine has the salivating freshness specific to the appellation and an unrivaled depth of fruit, which will be refined over the next ten years. To be tasted in its prime or to cellar for 5 to 10 years to enjoy its tremendous aging potential.
Pairing notes
Duck à l'orange, Sirloin of Beef, Grilled Beef.
