Chiroubles Famille Dutraive 2017

The wine

This Chiroubles is blended from Gamay cultivated on two different vineyard plots located at altitudes between 370 and 430 metres. It is vinified naturally and matured in stainless steel and oak barrels and foudres. Made for drinking right away, this juicy, grippy and intensely fruity wine cannot fail to make an impression.

Domaine de le Grand’Cor is owned by the Dutraive family. Their Gamay is produced under the Fleurie and the Brouilly appellations. The domain covers 11.7 hectacres and has held organic certification since 2009. Jean-Louis Dutraive does everything he can to allow the terroir be reflected in his wines. He vinifies without the use of sulfites and at low temperatures. He also uses natural yeasts and carbonic maceration. His wines are natural and are neither filtered nor clarified. It is a domain that has now established itself amongst the best that Beaujolais has to offer.
