Clos de la Roilette Fleurie 2019

Country: France

Region: Beaujolais

Type: Red Wine

Grape: Gamay

This bottling comes from vines averaging 30 to 45 years old. The fruit is sustainably farmed, hand harvested and fermented in whole clusters with native yeasts, kicking off the semi-carbonic vinification. The temperature-controlled fermentation takes place in open-top neutral vats with the cap kept submerged; the maceration for the Fleurie is approximately 14 days.

A deep red/garnet color with aromas of violet, ripe cherry, pomegranate and raspberry, with citrus zest and herbal notes. On the palate, sweet cherry and raspberry fruit, with firm acidity and prominent mineral and earth flavors. Long, persistent finish.
