Clos de la Roilette Fleurie, 2022

Located on the border of the Moulin-à-Vent cru, Roilette’s Fleurie terroir is atypical of Fleurie, rich in clay and the mineral manganese instead of all granite; the wines are more structured than many Fleurie wines. This bottling comes from vines up to 45 years old. Hand harvested and fermented in whole clusters with native yeasts, the maceration is approximately 14 days. Aging takes places in old foudres until bottling in the summer following harvest. Deeply colored, richly perfumed and seriously structured wines Delicious with a light chill.
