TASTING NOTES
"It is a great example of how Beaujolais has changed for the better in the past decade. Lively, bright and full of fruit, it also has meaty depth and complexity that makes it a very satisfying glass of wine." - Mark Andrew, wine buyer.
PRODUCER NOTES
It is a breath of fresh air to find someone as passionate about Beaujolais as Julien Sunier at a time when most producers in the region are happy churning out wines that taste like liquid candy. The Domaine is located in the town of Avenas with vineyards scattered on three different Crus: Regnie, Fleurie and Morgon. The vineyards are organically farmed and the approach to viticulture is edging towards biodynamic. Hand picked grapes are brought to the winery where they undergo a long and slow carbonic maceration and the wines aged in 228 litre barriques for eight to twelve months.
