This is a character-rich, expressive Gamay from Les Côtes de la Roche just west of Juliénas. Certainly one of the finest values for serious quality anywhere: floral, aromatic and full of intensely layered red fruits. Semi-carbonic vinification in large wooden barrels, aged in tank after malolactic fermentation.
Domaine du Clos du Fief is run by Michel Tête, with his son Sylvain working alongside. This is a rare 4th generation Cru estate in Juliénas and Julie, based at the far Northwest sector of Beaujolais. Michel took over this history-rich land after studying in Beaune, where he learned many techniques that he now uses on his own wines to great acclaim. Michel harkens his wines back to the classics: low yields, meticulously farmed vineyards, and classic winemaking resulting in serious and mouthwatering examples of terroir driven reds.
