Terrasses du Larzac Terre de Jonquières Mas Cal Demoura 2017

The wine

La cuvée "Terre de Jonquières", formerly called "L'infidèle" (until the 2014 vintage) is made up of five regional grape varieties - Syrah, Mourvèdre, Grenache, Carignan and Cinsault. It offers up aromas of black fruit, and liquorice notes and garrigue. On the palate it is both elegant and structured, fresh and deep. Its balance makes it accessible when young, but it can also be kept for between ten and fifteen years; it will pair beautifully with beef, lamb and even some sauce-based game dishes.

About the Producer Mas Cal Demoura

Mas Cal Demoura, located around thirty kilometres west of Montpellier, was created by Jean-Pierre Jullien in the 1970s. The domain was taken over in 2003 by Isabelle and Vincent Goumard, two passionate oenologists. Today, the vineyard covers 14 hectares and produces around 40,000 bottles a year. The vines are cultivated with great care in accordance with organic principles (certified since 2010): ploughing, organic soil amendments, grassing, organic treatments, low yields (around 25-30 hl/ha). In the winery, vinification is on a per-parcel basis, using native yeasts. This lovely domain is part of the new wave which is making Terrasses du Larzac one of France's most dynamic appellations. The domain's wines are characterised by their fruit, depth, finesse and dynamism.
