    The wine

    The Gamay in this cuvée is cultivated in line with sustainable and organic principles on a granitic terroir. The clusters undergo semi-carbonic maceration, followed by 10 days of maceration in vats, and the wine is matured for six months in previously used oak foudres. The final wine has a ruby colour and aromas of violets and ripe red fruits. The palate is fleshy with rounded tannins and a liquorice finish. Keep for up to 10 years in the cellar and pair with tender meats.

    Information about domain Domaine du Vissoux

    Domaine du Vissoux is currently managed by Pierre-Marie and Martine Chermette. Situated in Beaujolais, in Saint Vérand-Le-Vissoux, the production consists of a wide range of wines such as Moulin à Vent, Brouilly, and Beaujolais. Vinification is carried out in a magnificent vaulted cellar with large oak casks that were made by Pierre-Marie Chermette's great grandfather. Every effort has been made to preserve the cellar's character. Pierre Marie Chermette has never left his native region; born in Vissoux, he obtained his DNO (State Oenology Diploma) in 1980 from the University of Lyon and took over his parents' property at the age of 22. As passionate about wine as he is about his region, he devotes himself full-time to managing the Domaine. As for Martine, after completing her studies in Business, she joined the team in 1990 and quickly developed the domain's export sales. The Chermettes have found success through combining traditional and modern approaches. They have firmly established themselves amongst Beaujolais' most reputable producers.
