2020 Chateau des Jacques Fleurie Beaujolais

Winemaker Notes: Sourced from top vineyards throughout the Fleurie Appellation and then pressed and blended with only the top clusters. Fleurie is one of the 10 ‘Crus' of the Beaujolais between Villefranche sur Saône and Mâcon. The Fleurie is vinified with semi-carbonic maceration (12-20 days) with pumping of the cap and respect of the intactness of the grape cluster. With a beautiful deep cherry color and red fruit aromas, this Fleurie is nicely structured with non aggressive tannins that will permit a several years ageing. It is a very elegant wine. Food Pairing: It will perfectly accompany red meats as well as cheeses (goat cheese in particular.) It can be enjoyed quite young but will age very well for 3 or 4 years.

CRITICAL ACCLAIM


Robert Parker's Wine Advocate - "Aromas of sweet cherries, raspberries, plums and licorice preface the 2020 Fleurie from the Château des Jacques, a medium-bodied, rich and concentrated wine with tangy acids, powdery tannins and a nicely balanced profile. It’s a blend of around three-quarters lieu-dit Bel-Air and one-quarter Grille Midi."
