CUVÉE JULES 2019 (Domaine Serres-Mazard)

DESCRIPTION: The JULES cuvée is crafted from the same white grape varieties as the ORIGINE cuvée, but undergoes 6 months of ageing in new oak barrels and, more uniquely, in acacia wood casks.

LOCATION: 300 metres above sea level, on the plateau overlooking the village of Talairan, in the heart of the garrigue and in a preserved natural environment where many wild orchids grow.

SOIL: alternating conglomerates, sandstone, and fluvial sandstone marls locally known as Carcassonne molasses. Their sedimentation occurred during the Cuisian - Lutetian and Bartonian, three geological stages belonging to the EARLY AND LATE EOCENE epoch.

"Original due to its ageing in acacia casks which bestows upon it unique aromas, this cuvée seduces with its creamy, toasted nose where roasted hazelnut meets the delicacy of acacia blossoms. On the palate, its roundness and generosity are finely balanced by a beautifully fresh, lemony finish. This white wine perfectly highlights a tailor-made wood-ageing process mastered to perfection by the estate! "
