Place: Fleurie - Beaujolais, France

Variety: Gamay

Farming: Organic

Domaine de Colette is located in the small village of Lantignié, regarded as the top village in the cru of Regnié, and less than 1km from the border of Morgon. It is owned and run by the humble Jacky Gauthier with his wife Evelyne, whose family has been making wine for several generations.

The fruit from 50-year-old vines is whole bunch carbonic macerated in cement, followed by a six month slumber in the same vessel. Light, elegant and quintessentially vibrant Fleurie.
