Beaujolais Villages - 2022

This Beaujolais-villages cuvee is a combination of three modest properties in Lancié, totaling 0.7 hectares.

Country:France
Climate:Gamay, a grape with great versatility, thrives in the region's semi-continental climate, which features long, hot summers and cold winters. The grape has the potential to produce wines as fine, elegant, and complex as many Burgundies, as well as wines of great force and structure with nuances more closely linked to their neighbors across Lyon in the Northern Rhône Valley.
Harvest Technique:Hand harvested
Soil:sandy and rocky granite soils
Vineyard Size:0.7 ha
Fermentation:Whole cluster vatting in concrete tank for a better oxygenation. Saturation with carbonic gas to avoid oxidation and foster yeasts activity. 10-25 days of carbonic fermentation. 24 hours later fermentation starts. No pumping. Everything is performed by gravity.
Elevage:Aging for 6 months
Winemaker Name:Anthony Thévenet
Filtration:No
Fining:No
Total Production:200 cases
