DOMAINES PIRON Une histoire en Beaujolais OUR CREDO : A single grape variety, a great diversity of terroir, soil among the most remarkable of Beaujolais, an agronomy in biodiversity and respect for nature, healthy, ripe grapes, harvested by hand, vinification in search of expression, roundness and purity, wines of character with a personality and elegance. BEAUJOLAIS BLANC L’APPELLATION BEAUJOLAIS BLANC - Information Chardonnay is the royal white grape of Burgundy and thrives in calcareous soils. This wine comes from parcels situated in the village of Corcelles in Beaujolais. OUR VINES Average age of vines : 20 years Grape : 100% Chardonnay Agriculture raisonnée Area in production : 2 ha 40 Alc : 12.5%/vol. VINIFICATION Manual harvesting. Low temperature fermentation in stainless steel tanks is balanced by a small amount matured in oak casks to ensure roundness and length. TASTING NOTES AND FOOD PAIRING This white Beaujolais is characterised by floral notes and tropical fruits. It is a very balanced wine with good length. It shows a balance between vivacity and structure. Ideal as an aperitif, it also accompanies light, fine dishes, fish, and Asian cuisine or light curries. CELLARING Best drunk when fresh, from the first to the fourth year . THE 2014 VINTAGE The 2014 vintage saw excellent conditions early on promising a wonderful vintage. The month of August saw some rain which brought concerns that the harvest would be difficult. However the sun in September ripened the grapes perfectly, resulting in a wine which is balanced, fresh and silky, promising beautifully aromatic complexity.
