This wine bursts with vibrant red fruit flavors and a hint of spice, showcasing the signature freshness we love in a nouveau.
Raphael Saint Cyr, the fourth-generation winemaker at Domaine Saint Cyr in Anse on the southern edge of Beaujolais, continues the legacy of his great-grandfather who founded the estate, formerly known as Domaine de Bellevue.
Since Raphael and his wife took over in 2008, they’ve prioritised the northern crus of Morgon, Régnié, Chénas, and Moulin-à-Vent. Their commitment to organic practices led them to convert all 23 hectares of the domaine to certified organic cultivation, making it the largest organic estate in Beaujolais — a remarkable achievement.
A beautifully soft wine with fine tannins and a pleasant, lively crunch — an incredibly enjoyable Primeur.
Sourced from sandy granite parcels designated for AOC Beaujolais Rouge, this wine undergoes a 7-day whole-bunch maceration without pump-overs, occasionally using buckets of juice to gently wet the cap. Fermentation and aging take place in concrete tanks.
Sylvère Trichard took over his grandmother’s four hectares of vines near the Beaujolais commune of Blacé in 2012. Together with his partner, Mathilde Sothier, they follow biodynamic principles in line with the lunar calendar, though without formal certification. The vines, ranging from 20 to 80 years old, are rooted in sandy clay soils layered over granite.
