Our Vineyard
Location : Juliénas is located on the granitic foothills of the High Beaujolais on steep slopes ranging from 20% to 45%. The land is poor and particularly suitable for growing grapes. The structure of the subsoil gives a natural tannic power to the wines of the appellation that must be mastered to develop quality wines.
Grape Variety : Black Gamay
Soil and Subsoil : Diversified granitic soil and subsoil on blue stones altered at shallow depth
Surface : 1Ha15
Exposure : Northeast
Plantation :1969 : 14 ares 77, 1970 : 77 ares 32, 1992 : 10 ares 99, 2015 : 12 ares 13
Harvest and winemaking
The grapes were harvested manually in 15 kilo openwork boxes on September 7, 2022.
The harvest, ripe and healthy, allowed vinification to be carried out in optimal conditions. The wine was poured at the beginning of October and aged for 12 months.
Produced confidentially and patiently aged in our cellars, this vintage, which can be appreciated in its first years, will fully reveal itself after 5 to 6 years of aging. The search for finesse and maturity guides us in this vintage to offer you a high quality wine: Vayolette is undoubtedly our best climat in Juliénas!
