Domaine de la Grand'Cour JL Dutraive Fleurie Clos de la Grand'Cour 2020
Drink now or cellar for up to 5 years. No need to decant before serving.
This tiny family-run domaine produces sensational Beaujolais on just 11.5 hectares of prime vineyards in the villages of Fleurie and Brouilly. To produce the very best raw ingredients for their wines, the Dutraive family insist on working their vines in the traditional way without chemical fertilizers or weed killers and harvest their grapes by hand. In the winery the enologist Jean-Louis Dutraive uses a light touch with limited use of oak barrels to allow the brilliance of the local terroir to shine through.
The magnificent Clos de la Grand’Cour is produced with top quality grapes from the family’s 1.8 hectares of vines planted in the “Chapelle de Bois” or “Chapel of the Woods” area of Fleurie. The vines here are between 20 and 70 years of age which helps to produce incredibly concentrated and intense wines.
Ideal to be drunk young or over the next couple of years, this exuberant and youthful Fleurie opens with an explosion of red cherry, crushed wild berry, and dried herb aromas. On the palate there’s a vigorous freshness which is complemented by the light body and fresh red fruit flavours. This lively wine is perfectly at home alongside charcuterie and cheese, and can even be served slightly chilled as an aperitif in the warmer summer months.
