2023 Domaine Perol Pierres Dorees Rouge "Bien Eleve"
Anthony Perol farms over 10ha located on the Pierres Dorees (golden stones), north-west of Lyon on the southern edge of Beaujolais. This is where Rhone meets Burgundy and the varieties reflect this, with fruit forward, energetic Gamay and lean taut Chardonnay fermenting next to vital fresh Viognier and spicy cool Syrah. The farm was set up in 1912, and has always been in the Perol family, with Anthony taking over in 2005, when it also became organic. This is a beautiful if undiscovered part of France with real potential, but still with great value.
100 % Gamay on stony sandstone, sandstone, marl, clay and blue shale soils. Gravity transfer of grapes, 8-day maceration, pneumatic pressing, rigorous temperature control ferment in stainless steel. 12 months ageing on fine lees in concrete vats.
Pairing Suggestions: Ideal with charcuterie, Lyonnaise salad, roasted chicken, or creamy goat cheese.
Tasting Note: Clean, bright nose. Clean and juicy palate, some tension from acid and nice velvety exit. A bright and perfumed style.
Origin: Beaujolais, France
Alcohol: 13.0%
