Maison Jean Loron

Rift 69 Beaujolais-Villages Sans Soufre 2020

Millésime 2018 ''25-year-old vines. No added sulphites from harvest to bottling. Harvested by hand, partially destemmed and macerated for around 15 days in stainless-steel tanks. Nine months’ ageing on fine lees. Mid greyish crimson. That dark and dusty aroma that always reminds me of Gamay grown on granite. Extremely pure and clean for a wine with no added sulphites. Bright, dry tannic finesse and lovely fruit at the core, perfumed from start to finish. Impressive length and of course beautifully fresh. (JH)''
