2021 Paris Fleurie Grand Pre Domaine Gilles Paris
Couldn't load pickup availability
This cuvée comes from several sun-kissed parcels in the lieu-dit “Grand-Pré” within AOC Fleurie. The grapes see the classic cool carbonic maceration known to the Beaujolais region. Macerations last around two weeks and the harvested whole clusters are refrigerated pre-fermentation. The wine is fermented on indigenous yeasts and aged half in tank, half in 500L oak barrel before bottling without fining, filtration, or sulfitage.
Producer description:
Gilles Paris, born in Beaujolais, is one of five brothers. It must be in the genes as each one of them is involved in the viticultural world in one way or another. Initially his winemaking style leaned more towards using conventional methods but it didn't take long before deciding that he preferred the more natural approach instead, with native yeast fermentations and zero sulphur additions. Gilles makes a full range of wines from Beaujolais-Villages and multiple crus. They are all clean, fresh and classic Beaujolais.
