Clos de la Roilette Fleurie Griffe du Marquis 2024
Beaujolais with backbone—made from 80-year-old Gamay vines and vinified in barrels instead of stainless steel, giving it structure and aging potential most Fleurie can't touch. Griffe du Marquis comes from old vines on the border with Moulin-à-Vent, where clay and mineral-rich manganese soil creates wines more serious and concentrated than Fleurie's typical granite terroir. Hand-harvested fruit fermented whole-cluster with native yeasts, then aged in 2-to-8-year-old Burgundy barrels. Fresh black cherries, blackberries, and strawberries with a fine tannin profile and distinctive brightness.
