Grown on old stony, alluvial soil, the vines are 50 years old, certified organic are located at an altitude of 260m. The grapes were vinified in concrete vats then the wines were aged in oak barrels for 7 months. Juicy and vibrant expression of Gamay, with refreshing notes of red cherries, currants, potting soil, and crushed flower petals. It has a silky texture, firm acidity, and well-integrated tannins that make it easy to drink now or age for a few years. - Tim Stock, importer
