(Vintage 2018)

Bottled. Semi-carbonic maceration – remontage after a few days. Aged in half in tank and half in demi-muids.
The different ageing here compared with Pauline Passot’s Domaine de la Grosse Pierre wines shows in a little more spice/pepper and darker fruit. Much more savoury on the palate, rocky, dry-textured finesse. (JH)

Julia Harding, January 2020 (Vintage 2018)

A more ‘serious’ cru beaujolais, part aged in big old oak (600-litre demi-muids that are 7–10 years old), with darker fruit, a much more savoury character and dry-textured finesse – and slightly longer ageing potential, though there is really no need to wait.
