2020 is the first-ever vintage of this wine for Thibault, hailing from a parcel he has in a long-term rental in the cru of Fleurie. Incredibly promising!
Grape: Gamay
Vineyard: Grille-Midi, a plot of 50yo vines on pink granite. Farmed organically by Thibault himself
Making of: The grapes are hand-harvested and then undergo the traditional whole-bunch carbonic maceration. Spontaneous fermentation, aging on fine lees in old barriques for 8 months. No fining, no filtration, max. 2ppm of SO2 added at bottling.
Personality: floral, fresh, fascinating… Well-build palate with nice body and vivid, succulent finish
