"Already present in the 2018 edition, with a very fine star, Olivier Depardon returns with a Régnié full of charm and harmony. To achieve this, he de-stemmed his grapes, followed by a short ageing period in vats. The aromatic expression develops intense notes of ripe red and black fruit, with a hint of spice to boot. The palate, equally rich in fruit, is full-bodied, round and long, underpinned by silky, fine tannins". (Le Guide Hachette des Vins 2019) Gourmet pleasure!

About the wine:
Already present in the 2018 edition, with a very fine star, Olivier Depardon returns with a Régnié full of charm and harmony. To achieve this, he de-stemmed his grapes, followed by a short ageing period in vats. The aromatic expression develops intense notes of ripe red and black fruit, with a hint of spice to boot. The palate, equally rich in fruit, is ample, round and long, underpinned by silky, fine tannins.
About the domain :
Well-known to guide readers, this estate was established in 1848. Olivier Depardon (seventh generation), now joined by his son Alexis, has been at the helm since 1985, producing Morgon, Régnié and Beaujolais-Villages on his 26.5 ha estate.

Bue en 11/19. un léger perlé en bouche qui surprend sans être désagréable. nez de fruits croquants. supple, fleeting palate. a pleasure wine, but for me Régnié is not up to the level of the other beaujolais aocs.

Note and review by M. KEVIN M. Published on 04/01/2019
Beautiful purplish color, intense but fresh nose of black fruit, tightly-packed palate also relatively intense but rather short, relatively tannic. A fine expression of Gamay.

Note and review by M. ANDRE C. Published on 16/12/2018
Episcopal purple color, small crystals in the glass (tartaric acid?), lovely fruity but discreet nose, but with aeration evolving into a very slight acescence. On the palate, good acidity, fruit, but hard tannins and a formidable astringency. Has the winemaker wanted to make a wine for laying down? For the moment, not a very pleasant wine.

Note and review by M. JULIEN V. Published on 10/12/2018
Pretty deep ruby color for a Gamay. Attractive attack of red fruit, carried by a well-controlled bitterness. Good length. I like the balance and value for money.
