Domaine Piron – Lameloise Chénas Quartz 2014

Dark ruby color. Nose of berries, spices, earth, lots of mineral notes and a hint of flowers. Layered flavors on the palate with fruit notes leading the way, then the spices, earth, flowers and a very tasty and pleasant mineral finish. Exactly the kind of Beaujolais I often need! Very good (89)

Gamay from sloped vineyard at 300m altitude and 60+ years old. 30% of the wine is aged a few months in oak barrel. Alcohol level of 13%

Available at the SAQ for 23,15$ (Code SAQ : 10367412)
