Famille Dutraive Les Deduits Fleurie Beaujolais 2020

Explore the vibrant essence of Famille Dutraive’s 2020 Gamay from Fleurie in Beaujolais, Burgundy—a wine crafted by a family renowned for their mastery of this iconic grape variety. Born from adversity after devastating hailstorms in 2016 and 2017 disrupted harvests, this label was created by Jean-Louis Dutraive alongside his children Justin, Ophélie, and Lucas to honor tradition while ensuring continuity for future generations.

Every bottle reflects the Dutraive family’s unwavering commitment to quality. Though sourced from sustainably farmed vineyards (many aligned with organic principles), these grapes undergo the same meticulous care as those from their esteemed Domaine de la Grand’Cour estate. The result? A Beaujolais Gamay that bursts with bright red fruit flavors—think cherry and raspberry—balanced by subtle floral notes and a smooth, velvety texture. At 14.5% alcohol, it offers a bold yet approachable profile perfect for pairing with charcuterie or light dishes like roasted chicken or spring salads.

What sets Famille Dutraive apart? Their focus on family heritage and organic viticulture practices ensures each vintage captures the soul of Fleurie’s terroir without compromise. Ideal for wine enthusiasts seeking authentic Beaujolais expressions or newcomers curious about Gamay’s versatility, this wine delivers exceptional value and craftsmanship.

Whether you’re hosting an apéro with friends or enjoying a quiet evening, this 2020 Fleurie Gamay promises a delightful experience rooted in tradition and innovation. Pair it with Jean-Louis’s legendary homemade saucisson for a taste of authentic French countryside living—or simply savor its crisp elegance on its own.
