You can tell when tasting with Jean-Claude that this cuvée holds a special place in his heart. He only makes it in great years, from a selection of the best bunches he spontaneously keeps separate as the pickers pass through the vineyards. As a result, it comes from various parcels: a bit of Brouilly, a bit of Côte de Brouilly, a bit of Beaujolais Villages. Unlike his other wines, it is completely destemmed, and undergoes a seven month maceration in large clay amphorae. This unusual vinification makes for a surprisingly energetic wine, with a juicy body, and ripe, clean freshness on the palate that overflows with hedgerow fruit. It’s certainly not run of the mill Gamay.
