Information

Description
The Jauffret family has several generations of winegrowers for several years. The oldest was already known in 1856 in the town of Rochefort du Gard. This land, strong of history and filial roots, therefore welcomed “Château Terre Forte” in 2001, the culmination of this long line of winemaking tradition in the very first place where the family has always exercised its winemaking talents. Flagship of the Côtes du Rhône appellation, Château Terre Forte produces Côtes du Rhône, Côtes du Rhône villages and Signargues appellations wines.
The Château practices organic and biodynamic agriculture. With the aim of preserving heritage and the environment, this approach is indeed a priority for the terroir, the wine and future generations.
Harvested at ideal maturity, the grapes are placed in concrete vats, in barrels and in amphoras so that they best express their character. Music
accompanies them throughout their life in the cellar. Music therapy becomes a way of life for wines and winemakers! Young red wines, others for ageing, as well as white and orange wines will subsequently be born.
Terre forte has decided to sale only vintages that are matured. Indeed, the specificity of the Château is to give its wines time and thus to offer vintages that are sometimes more than 10 years old! It is now rare to find Côtes du Rhône as we knew it before! Discover this miracle of time…
Château Terre Forte; a family resemblance and wines that suit you…
