Le vignoble du Chiroubles est le plus "haut" des crus du Beaujolais, à une altitude moyenne de 400m, assis des sols de sables granitiques. Ce Chiroubles 2007 est à la fois soyeux, friand, tendre et élégant. Là encore, une belle recherche du fruit comme sait en livrer la Maison Coquard, avec en prime de notes typiques de pivoine. Un vin généreux et gourmand à déguster dès maintenant !

Expert opinion

Bettane & Desseauve

Bettane & Desseauve

Domaine rated (2014 guide) Selected (An estate or house that has won us over with one or more wines from its production, without us being able to give a general opinion on the style of the entire range)

About the domain :

"Christophe Coquard founded his own trading company in 2005. He offers a range of wines covering every appellation in Beaujolais, and more recently in neighboring Mâconnais. The labels are attractively decorated, and prices remain reasonable. The house didn't present its 2008s as we'd asked, but 2009s with a more flattering reputation. In this vintage, several crus disappointed us, but the regional appellations shone with fruit.
