Indulgent nose with Gariguette strawberry, cherry and blueberry suffused with fragrances of violet, liquorice and white pepper. Full-bodied and juicy.

Terroirs et Talents is an association of Beaujolais and Mâconnais family-owned estates. Its origin is first and foremost a story of friendship and the coming together of two people: Hervé Dupond and Xavier Barbet. The vineyards are tended in the traditional and most natural way to grow grapes that are healthy and full of flavour.

The vines are grouped around the property facing due south and south-east. They enjoy a wide diversity of terroirs, mainly with stony soil composed of sandstone, blue stone, clay and granite.

The grapes are vinified in whole clusters or destemmed in cement vats. The ancestral 'chapeau grillé' technique used requires a special wooden grill to keep the 'hat' submerged. This gentle extraction helps provide structure whilst retaining the elegance of the terroir.

Grilled and roasted red meats
