Jean Loron Rift 69 Sans Soufre 2017

Beaujolais Villages, Beaujolais, Burgundy, FranceThe roots of this family owned winery go back to 1711, and the 8th generation of family members currently oversee the negotiant operations. Jean Loron's chief winemaker, Jean-Pierre Rodet, first made wine under the guidance of Jules Chauvet, the famous scientist and oenologist widely recognised as a father of the natural wine movements. This youthful Bojo was partial carbonic, aged and rested briefly in stainless, and had no sulphur added throughout. Tight and light with some candied raspberry, cherry on the friendly palate, with a slight nub of tannins siding a silky smooth palate. Clean and bright, this is a characteristic young Bojo, and a naked view of it. #GoGamayGo.Tasted: 02 December 2020Tasted by: Treve RingPrices:
