A unique blend of Gamay from Mont Brouilly in Beaujolais (60%), plus Pinot Noir (20%), Aligoté (10%), and Chardonnay (10%) all from Burgundy. The Gamay and Aligoté are co-fermented in whole bunches in a large open wooden vat, and the Pinot Noir and Chardonnay are fermented in stainless steel tank. The wines age separately in used barrels for 12 months, and are then blended. No fining or filtration.
Plums, roses, cherries, cocoa and salt are all intermingling in this charming red and white blend. Light-medium bodied and made for easy drinking, the palate is a mix of wild berries and forest essence with a nice balance between fruit and savoury. Juicy and linear in profile, with fine dusty tannins to finish. Serve slightly chilled and drink with gusto.
