Jules Metras, Chiroubles VV 2024

Place: Beaujolais, France

Grape: Gamay

Vibe: Natural, lighter

Love Chiroubles! Sick of drinking Beaujolais that's overripe and alcoholic? Me too. Thank god for Jules Metras, who just like his dad, has a magic touch. This is firmly in the style of Beaujolais of old. Sitting at decent altitude for the region means we're still on the lithe and agile side. A crunchy fruit profile, a whisper of florals and a satisfying kiss of something wild. ABV: 11.5%
