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: 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.
