🏰 The 2015 vintage in Beaujolais was considered sensational, particularly for the Cru Beaujolais villages like Fleurie. While some wines from this producer in 2015 showed a tendency towards higher alcohol, this Fleurie is noted for its generous, structured character and fine balance. The vintage itself was marked by dryness, leading to lower yields, but the grapes achieved perfect sugars and alcohols. Some experts compared the fruit profile to 2009 but with more tastiness, suggesting that 2015 wines, like this one, will require more than five years to fully develop. 【Sensational Beaujolais vintage】.
🍴 This structured and balanced Fleurie would pair beautifully with roasted chicken with herbs, duck confit, or mushroom risotto. For an Eastern pairing, consider Cantonese roast goose or char siu (barbecued pork).
🥂 Perfect for a sophisticated dinner party or a special occasion where a mature, expressive red wine is desired. It's also an excellent choice for a wine tasting focused on Cru Beaujolais.
BACKGROUND
Chateau des Jacques, owned by the prestigious Burgundy house Louis Jadot, is a historic estate in Beaujolais known for elevating the region's winemaking standards. They treat Gamay with Burgundian techniques, including destemming and oak aging. Their Fleurie is a beautiful expression of this Cru, offering the appellation's signature floral aromas (roses and violets), bright red fruit, and a silky, elegant structure.
