Description
The Rully Rouge Chaponniere from Belleville is such a pretty wine, showing lovely fresh strawberry and raspberry fruit on the nose, followed by smoky secondary aromas. Fruit forward and delicate on the palate, there is a satisfying complexity with good ageing potential.
Domaine Belleville were established at the begining of the 20th Century and have 22 hectares of vines spread throughout this diverse region, making a variety of wines which show the myriad characteristics of Chardonnay and Pinot Noir when grown in different terroirs.
The Pinot Noir grapes for the Chaponniere are all sorted and destemmed before undergoing a cold maceration which lasts for between 3and 5 days, and is followed by alcoholic fermentation for 15-20 days. During fermentation, the wine is pumped over once or twice a day in addition to a daily punching down of the cap to extract the tannins and impart structure to the wine. The free-run juice is blended with the pressed juice before ageing in oak casks for a period of 12-16 months.

2023 Gamay, Domaine Moulin Camus, IGP Loire
Gamay
This 100% Gamay from Domaine Moulin Camus comes from grapes grown on a slope of pure mica schist which gives the wine juicy, rounded red fruits a bit of tautness and minerality. A warmer than normal, sulphur free maceration for three days helps bring out some warmth and roundness to the fruit, making it slightly beaujolais'esque but without the bubble gum/commercial edge that one would normally find in this price range.
