Cap de Mourlin's history

卡地慕蘭城堡酒廠是由Capdemourlin卡地慕蘭家族在Saint-Emilion聖艾美濃區建立起，至今已約有五個世紀的聲望，他們名字在地方上和釀酒事業上皆建立了一個不可動搖的地位。聖艾美濃和梅多克。葛拉維及玻梅洛一起名列波爾多四大紅酒名產區，尤聖艾美濃區是法國最大的村莊級AOC，面積高達5,300公頃，葡萄品種主要以梅洛及卡本內-弗朗為主，口感比較圓潤、成熟速度也比較快年輕時不像上梅多克單寧收斂性特強，難以入口。此地區的酒，酒體結構厚實、平衡和上梅多克的特等酒莊一樣禁得起數十年的時間考驗。

卡地慕蘭城堡酒廠原先是由Jean 及Roger Capdemourlin兩位兄弟分掌兩座葡萄圓，直到最近才由Jean的太太和Roger的兒子Jacques於1982年將這兩座葡萄圓結合在一起。目前它是在Jacques Capdemourlin的掌管下更成長茁壯，更繼續用該家族長久以來的釀酒熱誠投入該事業中。

The Capdemourlin family has been living in Saint-Emilion since 1580. The family gave its name to the estate, the oldest winery in the region, and where it has lived continually since 1580. Documentation of a wine sale dating from 1647 was found in the archives of the estate. The name Capdemourlin goes back to the 11th and 12th centuries (Cap comes from caput, meaning chief, and Mourlin from Maures or Moors).
Château Cap de Mourlin has been a member of the Academy of Wines of Bordeaux since 1948, and also belongs to the Association de Grands Crus Classés de Saint-Emilion and the Union des Grands Crus de Bordeaux. Jacques Capdemourlin was president of the Syndicat Viticole de Saint-Emilion from 1986 to 1990, and has been heading the Jurade of Saint-Emilion, the winemakers' brotherhood, as Premier Jurat since 1996.
