Château Clément Termes is a family-run wine estate located in Lisle sur Tarn, in south-west France, in the heart of the thousand-year-old Gaillac vineyards.
A little history:
The estate was founded by Clément Termes in 1860. Passionate about wine and vines, he built a winery in 1868. The Château was built a few years later. His wines were shipped in barrels throughout France. Most of his customers were clergy.
Several generations have succeeded one another: in 1968 Jean David increased the size of the vineyard and enlarged the winery, and in 1970 his son François developed the estate using new techniques.
Today, Caroline and Olivier, the 7th generation, are guiding Château Clément Termes into this new century.
The wines :
Château Clément Termes offers a wide range of wines, all the fruit of the work of an independent winemaker. From the cuvée tradition to the Bulles and the Gaillac perlé, the estate's wines express the terroir of Gaillac wines.
In fact, some of the Château's wines are made from local grape varieties that are characteristic of the appellation. The white wines include Mauzac, rich and fruity, and Loin de l'œil, fresh and lemony. The reds include the complex Braucol and the fruity Duras and Prunelard.
More well-known grape varieties complete the blends: Sauvignon-blanc, Muscadelle, Syrah and Merlot.
All the estate's wines carry the HVE - Haute Valeur Environnementale - label, and Château Clément Termes has been HVE level 3 certified since April 2018.
Respect for the environment and biodiversity is one of the estate's key commitments.
