Fleurie | Red | 2023
This wine, made from Gamay Noir à Jus Blanc grapes, is the result of environmentally friendly viticulture, as evidenced by its organic certification. The 50-year-old vines, grown in pink granite soil, give this wine a unique expression. Carbonic maceration of whole bunches and fermentation with indigenous yeasts add a clear aromatic dimension, while aging on fine lees in concrete tanks for 8 months refines its texture.

Thibault Ducroux
Thibault Ducroux is a winemaker based in Villié-Morgon in the Beaujolais region, where he works plots undergoing conversion to organic farming to produce "natural" wines that reflect the pure expression of Gamay on granite soils. His approach is inspired by local traditions while allowing the personality of each vintage to shine through.
Thibault Ducroux's wines are crafted using minimalist winemaking techniques, often employing carbonic maceration and indigenous yeasts to preserve the fruit's freshness and the terroir's natural energy. Aging takes place primarily in tanks to maintain a direct and vibrant expression.
Its wines, often from old vines, are characterized by a vivacity and aromatic tension that make them ideal to drink young or to explore over time for those who appreciate authentic and sincere Beaujolais wines.
