Tasting notes
Our Beaujolais-Villages 2015 reveals a deep ruby colour. It offers red fruits, lightly spicy notes. Of a remarquable softness and a nice concentration, the mouth is full of fresh fruits flavours. A very pleasant wine with mellow tannins.
Description
This Beaujolais Villages comes from several villages located in the northern part of the region. A large proportion of this blend comes from our stunning old-vine parcel planted on a 45 degrees sloped hillside. These wines combine finesse, flavor and roundness and are perfect for immediate enjoyment.
