The wine region of Beaujolais-Lantignié
Beaujolais-Villages geographic denomination (~110 ha in Lantignié, dual terroir with blue stones of Mont Brouilly to the west and pink granite sands to the east recalling Chiroubles): Gamay is the exclusive signature red — complex and structured profile with more typicity than classic Beaujolais-Villages, expressive red fruits, aromatic delicacy and granite minerality. A community of growers promoting the distinctive terroir aspiring to Cru status.
The wine region of Beaujolais
Kingdom of Gamay (98% of the vineyard): fruity, accessible reds with signature notes of cherry, raspberry, banana (carbonic maceration), violet and sweet spices, supple tannins and juicy acidity. From festive Beaujolais Nouveau (3rd Thursday of November) to the 10 more structured, age-worthy Crus: deep earthy Morgon, sturdy Moulin-à-Vent, floral Fleurie, crunchy Brouilly. Some lively Chardonnay. 12,000 ha south of Burgundy, granitic soils.
The word of the wine: Malolactic fermentation
Called second fermentation or malo for short. It is the degradation (under the effect of bacteria) of the malic acid naturally present in the wine into milder, less aggressive lactic acid. Some producers or wineries refuse this operation by "blocking the malo" (by cold and adding SO2) to keep a maximum of acidity which carries the aromas and accentuates the sensation of freshness.
