Winemaker Samantha Bailey has produced a fresh, characterful Chiroubles. Always one of the lightest Beaujolais crus, this is a blend of individual parcels from the slopes. A cool, crisp and intriguing Gamay with plenty of interest here for lovers of youthful, fruit-forward red wines. The natural acidity of Gamay shines through, together with floral notes and dark cherry fruit on the palate.
