The estate is located on a plateau at the summit of a hillside in the Entre-Deux-Mers. Anne- Marie Audy-Arcaute, who represents the fourth generation, recently rebuilt the cellars and upgraded with new stainless steel tanks. She and her son Anthony have brought Chateau Jonqueyres to new levels of complexity, depth of flavor and elegance.

Wine Maker Notes The grapes are harvested by hand as late as possible for optimal maturity and are meticulously sorted to remove any imperfect fruit. The fermentation and vatting process is extended to three weeks for maximum extraction of color and flavor. Ch. Jonqueyres is matured in oak casks, one third of which are new each year. The wine is vinified so as to deliver the maximum expression of fruit with a fine balance of concentration, ripe tannis and a discreet touch of oak.
