Château de Jau is a progressive family winery crafting timeless Southern French wines with a modern touch.
JauJau 1er Rouge is their premium red, sourced from top tier plots with black marl and brown schist soil. This is an easy drinking style that’s versatile for any occasion. A deep ruby shade, this wine reveals a bouquet of ripe red fruits intermingled with spices that flow seamlessly to the palate. Supported by vibrant acidity and silky tannins, it’s truly an elegant full-bodied wine.
The grapes were hand harvested, destemmed and fermented, then underwent malolactic fermentation. Following this, two thirds of the wine was aged for 9 months in oak barrels while the remained rested in the vats. After aging, the two wines were blended and the finished wine was bottled.
Food Pairing: meat dishes, poultry, pizza, pasta, cheese and cured meats.
