Dominique Piron "Fleurie"

Fresh ripe raspberry, dried rose, and spice, something a bit stony about it too, I’d suggest. Medium-bodied at most, light grip from fine powdery tannin, fresh and juicy feel, pretty and a little bit serious at once. The finish is bright and succulent. A wine very at ease with itself,...
Fresh ripe raspberry, dried rose, and spice, something a bit stony about it too, I’d suggest. Medium-bodied at most, light grip from fine powdery tannin, fresh and juicy feel, pretty and a little bit serious at once. The finish is bright and succulent. A wine very at ease with itself, and wonderful to drink.
The cru is situated in the north of Beaujolais. The pink granite of the soils of steep Fleurie vineyards are more acid and produce lighter, more delicate wines than, say, Morgon, and can be some of the most charming of all Beaujolais. This Dominique Piron Fleurie comes from 50-year-old vines and is perhaps a bit more mineral than the supple Brouilly, a slightly more ‘serious’ affair.
Grapes: Gamay
Region: Fleurie (Beaujolais, France)
