Tasting Note

The 2012 Couvent des Jacobins has a light, fresh pencil-lead tinged bouquet that leans slightly to the Left Bank in style. The palate is medium-bodied with dusky black fruit, a little grainy in the mouth with pointed acidity, but the oak feels too strong, too dominant on the coca-lacquered finish

Couvent des Jacobins

Located in the heart of the beautiful hills, on the former site of a 13th century Dominican monastery in Saint- Émilion, Couvent des Jacobins is one of the gems of French wine heritage. With land totalling nearly 11 hectares and consisting of clay and limestone soils, the Joinaud-Borde family make great Merlot to share from their plots. For the Joinaud-Borde family, making wine requires knowledge of wine etiquette; the finished product is not just a result of technical and cropping measures. It is primarily an art of living that seeks to perpetuate winemakers from fatherto son and mother to daughter. Certainly one of the most interesting up-and-coming wineries in Saint-Émilion and one to watch with intense interest.
