Jean-Marc Burgaud, Regnie
£19.48
Vegan.
Coming from a winemaking family, it was almost inevitable that Jean-Marc would set up his own estate, which he did in 1989 with his wife Christine. Their 19 hectares are divided between Morgon (13 hectares), Régnié (one hectare) and Beaujolais Villages (five hectares) and Jean-Marc believes that this is the maximum area he can cultivate while still producing the quality he is after.
Jean-Marc has one hectare of Gamay in Régnié. The vines are over 60 years old and grow at altitude on sandy and stony soils which are highly permeable and drain freely, an environment which is well suited to the Gamay grape variety.
Tasting Note:
Superb Beaujolais Cru with plenty of upfront red berry & strawberry fruit, a silky texture and fine texture & spice to add in complexity.
