Description

Château Roques de Jeanlice is a 15-hectare estate located on the limestone plateau of the Entre-deux-Mers region. This wine is made from Merlot (75%) and Cabernet Franc (25%), offering power, structure, and elegance that reflect the clay- and limestone-rich soil. The vines are over 30 years old. The exceptional potential of the vineyard inspired the creation of this wine using organic farming methods and without added sulfites. The grapes were macerated for 30 days, and fermentation took place in temperature-controlled stainless steel tanks. 30% of the wine was aged in barrels. This organic wine has been awarded a gold medal
