About

Officially recognized in 1936, this appellation, which straddles the Rhône and Saône-et-Loire departments, is recognized as one of the most emblematic Beaujolais regions. Its terroir is one of the most complex in the region, thanks to its granite soils crisscrossed by quartz veins, producing structured, unique, and rich wines for aging.

Terroir

This cuvée is a selection of great terroirs of Domaine Labruyère, predominantly originated from granite soils rich in quartz.

Vinification

Grapes are harvested manually in 15 kg crates before passing on a double sorting table and are 100% destemmed. The fermentation takes place in concrete vats, in order to isolate each plot and to express the unique characteristics of our terroirs. The entire system is thermo-regulated. The wine is aged for 12 months in oak barrels and in 600-litre barrels, called “demi-muids”, and then in concrete vats for 6 more months. Slight filtration and no fining.

Tasting Notes

Appearance: Beautiful intense red color with violet highlights. Nose: Both spicy and peppery with licorice notes. Floral touch (rose, rose petal, peony). Palate: Tender, flavorful, finely spiced. Lovely supple and fresh tannins.
