A new vintage, the 2008 was rated: RVF 16.5/20, Bettane & Desseauve 15.5/20, Guide Hachette 1* (Very successful wine), Gerbelle & Maurange 15/20
At Château Les Jonqueyres, tradition and a commitment to excellence are at the heart of everything we do. The result is a very expressive wine that truly reflects the terroir of its appellation, with aromas of black fruits, ripe blackcurrant, and redcurrant... The palate is full-bodied, with beautiful texture and well-defined tannins. Freshness and harmony!

RVF - La Revue du Vin de France / Guide des Meilleurs Vins de France
Rated estate (2012 guide) 1*Star (Up-and-coming stars or high-quality winemakers producing wines of a high standard—you won’t be disappointed when you taste the wines from these estates)
About the estate:
“Merlot, which makes up the vast majority (90%) of this vineyard with very modest yields, gives Jonqueyres’ wines very pure fruit and true harmony, without any harshness. The estate—which also cultivates the Clos Alphonse Dubreuil in Côtes de Bourg—is perfectly managed, with a beautiful legacy of old vines. The most recent vintages impress with their depth of tannins. They are at their best when young. Château Les Jonqueyres is currently in the process of converting to organic farming. We are awarding it its first star.”
