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:
Gravity vatting, indigenous yeasts, SO2-free fermentation, semi-carbonic maceration in whole harvest 8 to 10 days. Unfined and unfiltered bottling with low quantity of sulfites.
Tasting:
The Équinoxe de Printemps has aromatically lifted nose of fresh red raspberries, red cherries, violet, freshly blooming red and pink roses. The palate is surprisingly dark and savoury with a good bitey structure for cutting through the fat of late-night street-corner hot dogs, dripping with caramelised onions and bright-yellow mustard… don’t fight the perfect pairing!
