Regular price $31.00
Unit price per
100% Gamay
Roilette was the name of the original owner's prized race horse. She reportedly loved Gamay. 9 hectares of hillside property on the edge of the Fleurie Cru produces lovely wines with high ageing potential. The high concentration of iron rich soils and the old age of the vines are the estate's claim to what sets them apart. The estate is certified sustainable, no machinery is used in the fields, and fermentation is spontaneous with native yeasts in concrete tanks.
Rich black fruit with anise and nutmeg on the nose - full bodied red fruit and amazing structure on the palate.
