Producer:
Brand new dream-team in one of our favourite French regions, Beaujolais, these school friends Sebastien Dupré and Guillaume Goujon grew up here and have had their domaine since 2015.
 
The talent is really showing in these wines which are incredible expressions of fruit purity, slick winemaking and extending ageing gives density and elegance. An agroforestry approach has earned their organic certification to include the 2021 vintage and they are undergoing biodynamic certification.
 
Viticulture and Vinification:
A cuvée made in the pure Beaujolais Tradition, vatting by gravity, indigenous yeasts, SO2 free, semi-carbonic maceration in whole harvest from 10 up to 21 days. 12 months in barrels and demi-muids preceding 12 months in vats. Unfiltered bottling with low quantity of sulfites.
 
Tasting:
A red wine with a pure and intensely fruity nose. The mouth reveals flavors of fresh fruits, forming an ample and greedy frame of fine texture. An elegant wine of great character, deep and refined. Grilled white meat, coq au vin, or grilled sirloin with shallots. It will also underline the fondant of simmered meats.
