The Rochaux terroir sits on a very steep, south-facing hillside of granitic sandy soils, where vines between 40 and 70 years old produce small, concentrated fruit.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp dir=\"ltr\"\u003eFully destemmed, 10 days of gentle maceration, eight months in concrete tanks. Complete destemming keeps things clean and precise, letting the aromatics speak without distraction.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp dir=\"ltr\"\u003eFresh raspberry and cherry on the palate, with violet florals and a fine mineral thread from the granite beneath. The texture is light and airy, the acidity vibrant and refreshing, with a clean, lifted finish. It's gorgeous drinking.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp dir=\"ltr\"\u003eThe steep hillside and old vines give it considerably more depth than Chiroubles typically delivers, with definite mid-term cellaring potential to be had. A natural match for a whole host of cuisines, and a reminder that Gamay can be both delicate and genuinely compelling at the same time.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cblockquote\u003e \u003cp\u003e\"There are always consumers with preconceived notions about Beaujolais wines, but today I take it as a game to convince them.
