Fleurie Le Pré Roi Château de Poncié (anciennement Villa Ponciago) 2016

Intensity
This Gamay has been vinified to preserve the freshness of the fruit. So the harvest is partially scraped, the vatting is long (between 8 and 20 days and punching down and smooth pumping over have been regularly done.) Élevage took place in barrels of several wines which therefore do not give any woody aromas to the wine. On tasting, it reveals a beautiful ruby hue with violet hints, the nose is fine and elegant and exudes notes of black fruit such as cherry and blueberry, some floral touches enhance it and the supple and crunchy palate unfurls easily. This is an ideal wine to discover with friends and can be paired with roasted poultry for example.
