Beaujolais Village – GAM Vin Nature
Cedric’s signature
Origin
2.02 hectares of vines split over 2 very different types of land (“The Extremes”), one flat and one hillside.
Vinification
Short vatting period, in order to focus solely on the extraction of the wine’s fruity characteristics (5 to 8 days). With no added yeast or SO2, we leave this little gem alone, and let the malolactic fermentation occur naturally. We add a minimal amount of SO2 just prior to bottling for stability.
STYLE
This fruit-forward wine offers red berry aromas and a garnet-colored robe. With its delicate, elegant and full mouthfeel this wine has all the characteristics of the hillside young Beaujolais-Village wines.
Soil
Half of the vines grow on flat clay soil, and the other half on sandy granitic hillside soil.
