The vineyards of Juliénas are, with Saint-Amour, the northern cru of the Beaujolais
area, in the very South of Burgundy. They spread over the villages of Juliénas,
Jullié, Emeringes and Pruzilly.

Winemaking
“Burgundy-style” vinification, the grapes were 100% whole bunches. The fermentation maceration lasted 15-18 days with cap-punching, over-pumping and racking. The wine was then aged 8 months in tank on fine lies. Light filtration before bottling.

Nose

Palate
A nice mineral wine in the mouth, well-bodied with a real structure and velvety tannins.
