The wine region of Fleurie
Beaujolais cru nicknamed the Queen, on the single commune of Fleurie. Signature Gamay noir: floral, perfumed reds with signature notes of violet, iris, strawberry, raspberry, peony and a peppery touch, silky tannins and an airy palate - the most delicate elegance of the crus. 13 recognised climats including Poncié, La Roilette, La Chapelle des Bois. Granitic soils with sandy gruss and manganese signing the finesse.
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: Bordeaux barrel
Barrels of 220 to 225 litres. The toasting of the barrel to bend the staves (curved boards used to make the barrels) can vary according to the coopers and the demand. A gentle and slow toasting has little effect on the aromas. On the other hand, a strong toasting gives aromas of coffee or cocoa which will influence the taste of the wine. A wine barrel has already been aged for a year and has less impact on the wine than a new barrel.
