Product Notes

Domaine de Baronarques wine is a product of a historic vineyard situated at the heart of the Cathar region, in Southern France. This exceptional wine offers an exquisite fusion of spice, indigo flowers, grey pepper, and ripe blackcurrant. Aged in French oak barrels, its flavour embodies concentrations of complexity and grace. Well balanced and structured, it reveals perfect acidity and supple tannins. The luxurious nature of Domaine de Baronarques wine, coupled with its lasting mouthfeel, reflects the estate's mastery in winemaking. It stands as an exemplification of a classic, elegant wine that pairs beautifully with rich, hearty dishes.

Tasting Notes

An attractive, dense red with a garnet tint. The nose opens on fragrant, juicy, fresh fruit notes. With airing, subtle spice and chocolate aromas bring a certain succulence. After a fresh and well-structured attack, refined, silky tannins emerge on the full and dense mid-palate, while crushed blackcurrant, cocoa and liquorice flavours give the wine excellent aromatic length. The flavours linger on the remarkably long, harmonious and balanced finish.

About the Winery

Domaine de Baronarques

Located in the lush region of Limoux in the South of France, Domaine de Baronarques is an illustrious winery steeped in centuries of tradition. Nestled amidst verdant green landscape, the estate encompasses a magnificent château and stretches over 110 hectares of lush vineyards. The winery offers both history and prestige, combined with a passion for producing fine, high-quality wines.

The rich history of Domaine de Baronarques dates back to the 17th century. After periods of turmoil and resurgence, the estate was acquired in 1998 by the Rothschild family who breathed a new life into the dormant vineyards. The Rothschilds have not only revived the winemaking reputation of the area but also added their unique touch to the age-old art of viticulture.

With its vineyards benefitting from the Mediterranean climate and limestone-sandy soil, Domaine de Baronarques offers a diverse range of meticulously crafted wines. Terroir-driven, their wines exhibit the beautifully intricate nuances and aromatic diversity of the Limoux region. Some of the prominent grape varieties grown include Chardonnay, Merlot, and Syrah, complemented by smaller plots of Cabernet Sauvignon, Cabernet Franc and Petit Verdot.

Visitors to the estate are taken on a multi-sensory journey that starts with picturesque walking tours of the vineyards followed by guided tastings of Domaine de Baronarques wines. The experience of savouring fine wines along with an in-depth explanation of the winemaking process is a treat for oenophiles and casual wine lovers alike.

In conclusion, Domaine de Baronarques is a treasure for those appreciating the rich history, the dedication and the art of winemaking. With its careful blend of tradition and innovation; one can't help but be swept away by the intricate beauty of the estate and the luscious liquid treasures it produces.
