Reviews
Wine Enthusiast 92
This wine's firm tannins come from the granite soil of the vineyard. With a ripe character, spice and generous black fruits, the wine's structure is still young.

James Suckling 92
Although this has some of the typical crispness and vitality of Beaujolais, there is also quite a serious tannin structure here, plus intense, savory character that runs right through the long, dry and mineral finish. Sustainable. Drink or hold.

Technical Details
Description
Taking over the business from his grandfather in 1986, Gilles & Annie Copéret have expanded across several prestigious Cru's in Beaujolais, most recently with the acquisition of 6 acres on the hill of La Madone in Fleurie. All the grapes are hand harvested and the vineyards have a Terra Vitis sustainability certification.
Tasting notes
Named after the Chapel of the Madonna that overlooks the Fleurie vineyard in Beaujolais, the Domaine Gilles Coperet, Fleurie “La Madone” presents with floral aromas (rose and peony) reveals itself on a supple and silky palate with fine tannins. It is a fresh, balanced wine and food-friendly with delightful minerality.
