This Régnié is already starting to pinot! On a fresh, fine nose, full of flint, smoky notes and morello cherries, it adds little spices, violets, menthol and chocolate on the palate, before evolving into grenadine. Round and fresh, it's a marvel! For an original pairing, match it with foie gras.

About the domain :
In the center of the village of Chiroubles, on the green balcony of the Beaujolais, sixth-generation Christophe farms 16.5 hectares, 14 of which are in his cru. Vinifying with (classic) semi-carbonic maceration, he de-stems parcels where the grapes are not yet ripe. He sells everything in the bottle, and at a fair price - the price at which chiroubles should be sold. We are surprised, however, by the stylistic differences in the range, noting irregularities in recent vintages.
