Deep ruby color. Red and black fruit and spice flavors. Supple tannins and a pleasant aftertaste. The Domaine is led by Gilles Juran, who holds important positions in the Beaujolais Crus Association and the Beaujolais Wine Committee, and his wife Magali. The Domaine's name comes from the plot of land, Clos des Nugues, purchased by the previous owner, Gerard, in 1976. The average age of the vines is now 45 years, and the planted area is 35.3 hectares. Some of the vines are over 100 years old. In 2018, the Domaine was also certified HVE (Environmentally Valued). In order to improve the environment of the vines and soil, the use of pesticides is minimized. We also have a limited number of Gilles' top cuvées, which are only produced in good years. These have the potential to age, and are sometimes so high-level that they are reminiscent of Pinot Noir from famous appellations!
Please try this high quality Gamay.
