Brouilly Pierreux Marc Delienne 2018

The wine

Made from grapes grown in Pierreux, with its deep, granite soils, this wine is a lovely addition to your collection according to William Kelley from Wine Advocate. After the grapes are harvested by hand, they are sorted and macerated without additives. Pressing is carried out after 9 days, then the maturation in barrels lasts 11 months. A wine bursting with raspberry, spices and a pleasant, smoky hint.

About the Producer Marc Delienne

Marc Delienne learnt the viticultural trade at the Trévallon domain in Provence with Eloi Durrbach. In 2015, he purchased a property with 14 hectares in Fleurie, believing strongly in the region's potential for growth in fine wine. He set out to convert the domain to organic production, then to biodynamics in 2016. The domain has now been fully certified for 2 years. Since this wine makers first vintages, he has been making flavourful and balanced wines with delicate tannins and notes of red fruits and blueberry. One to watch in Beaujolais!
