Delectable, fruity nose underscored with aromas of red fruits and notes of nutmeg spice. Generous and aromatic on the palate, with supple, mellow tannins. Notes of red fruit and spice offer depth and lively acidity. Expressive, generous and enjoyable right now, this is a perfect wine to enjoy with a slight chill.
Each plot is vinified separately. Fermentation in stainless steel, accompanied by semi-carbonic
maceration. 10% whole cluster fermentation. A fiercely hot and dry summer in 2022 led to reduced yields, but the concentrated fruit from the arid conditions resulted in fantastically rich and flavorful wines. AGING: Six months, 50% in concrete vats, 50% in large oak foudres
Château de La Chaize is a crown jewel of Beaujolais and classified as a French national heritage site due to its magnificent garden designed by André Le Nôtre, renowned landscape architect to King Louis XIV of France. All wines are made exclusively from estate vineyards and are proudly certified organic, starting with the 2022 Brouilly wines and Fleurie from 2023.
An elegant and fragrant Fleurie that has the light-footed character and floral delicacy we associate with this appellation. The wine's structure is very discreet, completely beneath the surface on the front palate, then slowly emerging in the long, precise finish.
