Gamay Noir Vineyards. The vineyards are mainly planted on granite slopes located around the city or Lyon, with East and Southeast exposures. Their roots are firmly anchored in granitic rocks formed more than 320 million years ago, in the foothills of the Massif Central Hercynian.
The grapes are sorted in the vineyard and partially destemmed. Traditional vinification in temperature regulated vats between 20 and 30 degrees. Long maceration to gently extract the polyphonic material, stainless steel and cement vats. Maturation on fine lees and malolactic fermentation during ageing.
Cuvee Jean is adorned with a deep intense colour, purple, garnet with purple tints. On the nose, it has a touch of liquorice and spice and mineral quality, with a nice maturity of blackberry and blueberry. The mouth is round, with a pleasant sweetness. The balance is perfect. Cuvee Jean is full of freshness and leaves.
