Joseph Drouhin Beaujolais Villages 2019
RM104.80
Grape Varieties: Gamay
Tasting Notes by Véronique Boss-Drouhin:
A truly convivial wine. Owing to the careful blending of various terroirs, the result is a wine of great charm. It has a lovely raspberry colour and a brilliant hue. The nose is both refined and intense, with notes of violet, peony and red fruit syrup. As you drink it, it feels fresh and silky. Both freshness and fruit remain for quite a long time on the palate.
Vintage 2019
Due to a beautiful viticultural season, the wines show a perfect balance, the colours are intense and the structure is very pleasant on the palate.

Description
Vineyard
Site: although Beaujolais is part of “Greater Burgundy”, it differs from Burgundy in many respects. Out of the 35,000
hectares of gamay planted throughout the world, 22,000 hectares are in the Beaujolais area, spread over 38 villages.
History & Tradition: Maison Joseph Drouhin has always had a special affinity for this area and, since their pioneering
work in the early fifties, has assiduously promoted it around the world. Made from grapes harvested in villages celebrated for the quality of their terroir and micro-climate, this wine represents, vintage after vintage, the true spirit of the Beaujolais-Villages appellation.
Soil: schist and pink granite.
Viticulture
Density: 9 000 vines/ha, to check the strength of the varietal.
