Chateau de Pourcieux Description

Château de Pourcieux was founded in 1760 and has been owned and operated by the same family since then, generation after generation. Michel d’Espagnet, the winegrower, has managed the vineyard since 1986, when he took over from his father. Michel’s son, Remi, joined him in June 2014, immediately after getting his oenologist diploma.

Pourcieux is a small village in Provence at the east of Aix en Provence and the famous Sainte Victoire Mountain, which was painted many times by Paul Cezanne.

The vineyard covers 64 acres and produces five different varietals: Syrah, Grenache, Cinsault, Cabernet Sauvignon, and Vermentino. For the past 25 years, the vines have been dressed in twin “de royat” rows and elevated  to protect them from the strong Mistral wind, which in turn also allows them maximum exposure to the sun.

The style of Château de Pourcieux wines is deliberately modern with a permanent commitment to respect and express the terroir identity. One of the main goals is to preserve their soil, which is why they use neither chemical fertilizers nor herbicides.

Wine Enthusiast: 92 Points

A strongly textured wine, this has a cool edge. Its red fruits are lifted by a mineral characteristic and bright acidity. The wine needs to age a little further. Drink this fine wine later in 2023. Roger Voss, 7/1/2023.
