Vin Nature a Butiner Beaujolais-Villages
Vin Nature a Butiner Beaujolais-Villages
A fruity pure and singing wine, with a charming nose of floral notes (violet and peony) and small red fruits. It offers beautiful melted tannins and balance. Classic Beaujolais, with the added bonus of completely minimal intervention, with both the health benefits that promotes, along with the beautiful balance of fruit and earth it lends itself towards with Gamay.
The maceration is traditionally done in wholes bunches, the juice being protected from air by carbon dioxide in the fermentation. We do a few pump overs. This gentle extraction helps bring the structure while retaining the elegance of the terroir and limits handlings. Ageing of 7 to 8 months is on fine lees. This brings a natural antioxidant characteristic to the wine. The bottling is done at the estate, with no fining, only light filtration and no sulphite additions.
