Description
Domaine de la Beche Régnié 2021
Crafted in Burgundy’s Hidden Gem
Experience the vibrant soul of Beaujolais with this exquisite Gamay from Domaine de la Beche. Grown on steep, sun-drenched slopes in Régnié’s high-elevation vineyards—just southwest of Morgon—this 2021 vintage captures the essence of artisanal French winemaking. Fifty-year-old vines rooted in sandy granitic soil yield concentrated fruit, while meticulous techniques like whole-berry fermentation (destemmed but uncrushed) and spontaneous wild yeast fermentation preserve purity. Aged briefly in concrete vats for just six months, this approach amplifies the wine’s lively character without overpowering its delicate structure.
Taste Profile & Accolades
James Suckling awarded this bold yet harmonious red 90 points, praising its “wild blackberry and violet notes” layered over gentle tannins. Expect a burst of crisp red berries—raspberry and cranberry—with a supple, full-bodied finish that glides effortlessly across the palate. Perfectly balanced at 13% alcohol, it’s versatile enough to enjoy now for its youthful exuberance or cellar for near-term aging.
