Domaine Grégoire Hoppenot
Origines Fleurie Gamay
Fleurie, Beaujolais, Burgundy, France
This Cru Beaujolais is a natural beauty. I’m really excited about it.
Made from the Gamay grape, hailing from Fleurie in Northern Beaujolais region of France, this wine is medium ruby.
It has medium(+) intensity of youthful, bright, yet also concentrated aromas, which are primary-note driven. Aromas include notes of ripe cherry, black raspberry, banana, strawberry shortcake, orange peel, potpourri, anise, clove, licorice, and wet stone.
On the palate, this wine is dry. It has medium(+) acidity, a medium body, medium alcohol, medium tannins, and medium(+) intensity in flavors consistent with the nose but more tart and fresh. This wine has a medium finish.
Also, I love the label. I’m a sucker for beautiful artwork on labels. I saw it and had to try it. I’m glad I did.
Domaine Gregoire Hoppenot, Fleurie, Origines. Vintage 2018. ABV 12.5%.
