Jean Michel Dupré Vignes De 1918 Régnié 2011
Régnié, Beaujolais Villages, Beaujolais, Burgundy, FranceThese deep rooted, gnarly vines were planted in 1918. Amazing to think about what was happening in Beaujolais when these went into the ground. Now they yield notes of mineral, light cherry flesh and cherry pit. A bright and pretty palate with shining acidy and minerality dominate, with red fruit and wild, wilting florals. Decant in advance to let the wine open slowly - no need to rush the old gentleman.Tasted: 15 November 2015Tasted by: Treve RingPrices:France | $15.00 | 750ml | winery direct |
