About the estate:
Winegrowers in Juliénas since the early 17th century, the Perrachons purchased Ch. de la Bottière in 1877, followed by Dom. des Perelles in Romanèche-Thorins (windmill). When he took over in 1989, Laurent Perrachon acquired Domaine des Mouilles, then plots in Morgon, Fleurie, and Saint-Amour: a total of 31 hectares, with vines in six crus. With Maxime and Adrien, the new generation joined the estate in 2016.

About wine:
Deep purple in color, this wine has a fragrant nose of blueberry compote, raspberries, vanilla baking spices, blackberries, and cinnamon. On the palate, the wine is full-bodied and rich, pairing well with steaks, grilled poultry, and vegetables.

Note and opinion by Mr. GILLES D. Published on 08/08/2024
Seems to be developing, an interesting cuvée but not entirely convincing. Lively on the palate, fresh and crisp, marked by incisive acidity. Slightly spicy, the generous texture with impressive ripe black fruit aromas combined with subtle toasted notes accompanies the tasting of solid tannins, a touch sappy towards a clean, precise and intense finish. At first glance, it would be useful to leave it in the cellar until at least 2025, or even 2026, to allow time to refine its somewhat nervous character and integrate its tannins. Well suited to a lamb's lettuce salad with chicken livers deglazed with sherry vinegar and enriched with pine nuts. Rating = 3.6.

This time I am disappointed because the taste is less typical of Beaujolais than I remembered. To be reviewed.
