Clos des Jacobins (BIO ORGANIC) 2016 12 Pack

Clos des Jacobins, a historic Grand Cru Classé in Saint-Emilion Clos des Jacobins is located at the entrance to the medieval village in the heart of Saint-Emilion’s great terroirs. It takes its name from the Dominican monks known as “Jacobins” who lived on the outskirts of the Saint-Emilion village and used the farm buildings to accommodate pilgrims on their way to or from Santiago de Compostela. They farmed the vineyard to produce their wine, which provided them with most of their income. Since the 17th century, the homogeneous vineyard has extended over 8,3 hectares in a single block surrounding the cellars. These vines are situated at the foot of the Saint-Emilion slope, where its clay soils are enhanced by the limestone scree that has eroded from the plateau above. This special location and its south-facing orientation provide a unique, early-ripening and generous terroir. Clos des Jacobins has been a Classified Growth since official classification began in Saint-Emilion in 1954.
