Wine Enthusiast 90
This Cabernet Sauvignon grown in the Boutenac Hills of Corbieres has a nose of black plum, pencil shavings, strawberry preserves and blackberry. The wine is robust and fruit filled with faint notes of cedar and dried grape stem. Pair with steak, rotisserie chicken and portobello mushroom.

James Suckling 90
A fruity, dense and balanced 100% cabernet sauvignon with aromas of blackberries, dark plums and some bark. Medium-bodied with fine, firm tannins. It has a juicy berry character at the center and a more serious and compact expression toward the finish. Drink or hold.

Technical Details
Description
Jadix is a delicious Cabernet Sauvignon from the South West of France. It is produced
from vineyards located near the Boutenac hills of the Corbieres appellation. The vines
border the Orbieu River and lay just outside of the Corbieres appellation in a little village
called Luc-sur-Orbieu. The vines are planted on terraces of gravel soils over a subsoil of
limestone and clay. The combination of soil plus the fact that it is located so close to the
river gives the Cabernet Sauvignon the perfect humidity to thrive.
The name of this wine, Jadix, comes from the French meaning of “once-upon-a-time”, in
homage to the romans who cultivated the first vineyards in this rVines egion.
The Mediterranean climate, dry, sunny and warm, favors the long cycles of the vine,
while the north-western wind present all year round makes it possible to avoid excessive
treatments in the vines. This flawless climate also allows the Jadix wine to be extremely
expressive in color and aromas. This Jean-Christophe and Margaret Calvet selection of
Cabernet Sauvignon is sure to impress you with its smooth velvety touch in mouth and
its long persistence on the finish, leaving you salivating and craving more. It is bound to
compete with any other Cabernet Sauvignon from this region. Enjoy it alone or with
steaks, lamb, pork, grilled meats and Mediterranean styled dishes.
Tasting notes
A garnet red robe, the nose of intense raspberry, rhubarb, and smoky wooded and licorice aromas. In mouth a burst of fresh acidity makes this wine feminine and elegant. It
finishes on its supple yet pervasive tannins that linger in mouth. It is unique in its combination of concentrated fruit, complex aromas and body.
Vinification
Crafted from 100% Cabernet Sauvignon that is grown in clay and limestone soils where the average age of vines is 25 years with low yields. All farming follows environmentally friendly viticulture. After fermentation, the wine is aged in tank for one year, with 5 weeks of oak staves maceration. The final wine is then bottled unfined & unfiltered.
