Winery Introduction

The history of Jiuxian Winery can be traced back to the Middle Ages, with most of the Bordeaux wineries such as Chateau Boyd Cantenac, Chateau Haut-Brion, and as far as including Burgundy. Like the wineries along the German Wine River, the predecessor of the Juxian Winery is a church monastery. During the Roman period, founded by the monks of Abbaye de Vertheuil, the wine produced was supplied to the parish of Saint-Didier in Cantenac for dining and religious ceremonies. But centuries later, the wines here were also sold out, which brought a considerable economic income to the monastery. Alexis-Lichine, former owner of Zhu Xian Manor, is a wine critic and wine merchant. After 2000, there was not a disappointing bottle of wine at Zhu Xian Manor, one of the fastest growing wineries in Margaux. Chateau Prieure Lichine is located in the Medoc region on the left bank of Bordeaux. It is one of the most scattered wineries in the Medoc region. There are about 40 grape fields scattered around Margaux. In 1855, in the degree rating

Zhongyinxian Chateau is rated as a four-level village of column-level wineries.

 

Region Introduction

Margaux is located in the south of Medoc and is the largest one of the six major production areas in Medoc. The total area of ​​grape cultivation is 1,300 hectares. As early as the 17th century, the Margaux winery in the producing area was listed as a first-class winery known to the world of wine, 2 centuries earlier than the 1855 classification. Margaux wine was the designated wine for the French State Banquet. President Hu Jintao had visited this place during his visit to France. The 1982 Margaux was used to entertain him. Some people think that high-quality grapes can only be planted in the area between 100 and 300 meters above sea level. However, Margaux's altitude is very low, only 15 meters, but it can produce world-class wine, mainly due to the unique production area Natural terroir. Marge's terroir is dominated by the Quaternary river terraces, and these deposits cover the base of limestone-dominated Tertiary sediments. A gravel layer a few meters thick consists of gravel and pebbles of different sizes, and clay is thin. This seemingly barren soil makes the grapes deeply rooted underground to soak up the nourishment. It is precisely because of this that it is unique. The vines in the Margaux region are rooted in deep layers of soil. The wines produced are extremely elegant and aromatic. They are rich in tannins and are soft and delicate, reminiscent of women's gentleness. Some people described Margaux's music as a wonderful female singer or a melodious melody of music, and others described it as a "royal lady."
