Clos du Jaugueyron ‘Nout’ Margaux Rouge 2018
Location: France, Bordeaux, Margaux
Winemaker: Michel Théron
Grapes: 55% Merlot, 45% Cabernet Sauvignon
From the Importer Selection Massale:
Michel Theron wasn't supposed to be making Haut-Medoc. Originally from the Languedoc Roussillon, when he went to Bordeaux to study winemaking in 1988, the plan he had in mind was to go back to the family estate and take over. It never happened. Instead, he fell in love with a Bordelaise, and in 1994, the couple produced their first wine from a small parcel in Cantenac they bought in 1993.
Today the estate has developed to a little over 7 hectares in Arsac, Cantenac, and Margaux. Classic Medoc soil with a lot of small gravels and sand, Michel is a firm believer in organic/biodynamic viticulture, converting officially with the 2008 vintage. The vineyards are plowed, the ecosystem is taken care of, and Michel has never used synthetic products in the vineyards.
The Margaux ‘Nout’ sees a little more wood and is mainly Merlot from young vines in Macau, a fresher Margaux.
