Château Saint-Eutrope

Château Saint-Eutrope

Olivier and Jean-Louis will welcome you to share their passion for wine and the vine and spend a pleasant moment.

 

Planted on clay and limestone soils, the vines hold carefully selected varietals in order to give rich and well-balanced wines.

 

Château de Saint-Eutrope corresponds to a 45ha vineyard, of which 95% received the Corbières Appellation, a reward for the firm criteria Olivier and Jean-Louis strictly follow. They indeed opted for a balance of Syrah, Grenache noir, Mourvèdre and old vines of Carignan for their red and rosé wines, while the whites are made of Macabeu, Bourboulenc and Grenache blanc.

 

 

Wine-making process for the A.O.P.:

 

- White: harvest by hand, direct pressing on a pneumatic wine-press with clarification of the musts at 5°C for 48 hours. Yeasting and minute control of temperature kept to 16°C during the whole fermentation process.
- Rosé: direct pressing on a pneumatic press with clarification of the musts at 5°C for 48 hours. Yeasting and minute control of temperature kept to 16°C during the whole fermentation process.
- Red: 50% of unstemmed grapes, temperature control, offloading at the start of fermentation, and daily reassembling until the end of fermentation. 50% of grapes harvested by hand go through a carbonic maceration process. Some specific wines are kept in new oak barrels.
