MICHEL CHIGNARD Fleurie 'Les Moriers' 2023 Bottle

Description

From Michel Chignard, a top producer consistently crafting fantastic wines, the 2023 Fleurie 'Les Moriers' is a vibrant expression of old-vine Gamay. This Cru Beaujolais, from the 'Les Moriers' lieu-dit bordering Moulin-à-Vent, skillfully blends Fleurie's floral elegance with impressive depth and structure.

It pours a radiant ruby-purple, offering an immediate, enticing bouquet dominated by red berry fruit, crushed raspberries, and fragrant peonies. The palate is medium-bodied and concentrated, showcasing ripe strawberries and subtle, soft 'burnt fruit' nuances, balanced by fresh acidity and remarkably fine-grained tannins. With immense immediate appeal and exceptional food versatility, this sophisticated Fleurie also possesses fantastic ageing potential, a testament to Chignard's consistent mastery.
