14/20
Gault & Millau
A new vintage, the 2012 was rated: Gault Millau 15.5/20
This new cuvée was created in 2012 with the aim of offering a white wine dominated by Chenin, a grape variety particularly prized at the estate. This wine is all fruit, freshness, and liveliness, and is the perfect companion for an aperitif, seafood, or even a grilled sea bream with parsley, for example...

About the estate:
A family-owned vineyard dating back to the 12th century, Château de Jonquières boasts a long lineage of 32 generations of winemakers—a rarity for the region! The estate’s wines, with their classic character, remain consistently easy to drink and harmonious—a classic style that the new generation, now at the helm of the estate, has no intention of challenging but rather of refining. Their dynamism and clear vision seem to be paving the way for a new era. The whites, expressive and easy to drink, blend Chenin and Grenache Blanc. The reds age well, particularly La Baronnie, which refines over two to eight years in the bottle. Lansade, while less consistent and precise, nevertheless charms with its rich, indulgent character.
