Description
Fleurie Rouge "Clos Vernay" 2018 | Wine from Domaine Lafarge Vial
Born from the experience and expertise of the prestigious family estate in Volnay, Domaine Lafarge-Vial is the result of a passion passed down by Chantal, Frédéric, and their daughter Clotilde. In 2014, they chose to establish themselves in Fleurie, in Beaujolais, to work with old vines cultivated in organic farming and converted to biodynamics. Soil work is done with horses, the vines are pruned in goblet style, and the vinifications follow Burgundian methods, adapted to the Gamay grape variety. This meticulous care gives rise to wines that are dense, elegant, and typical of the Fleurie terroir.
The Fleurie "Clos Vernay" 2018 is the flagship cuvée of the estate, recognized for its structure and elegance. Produced from the Gamay grape, this wine offers a racy and powerful expression of the terroir. Its captivating aromas of ripe plum, wild berries, orange peel, and sweet spices reveal all the complexity of the 2018 vintage. Supported by a lively acidity and silky tannins, this wine is a true tribute to the expertise of the Lafarge-Vial family.
Upon opening, this wine reveals intense and deep aromas where plum, wild red fruits, and a delicate touch of sweet spices intertwine. On the palate, its structure is characterized by a perfect balance between liveliness and power. The tannins are well-integrated, providing a silky texture and a remarkable length. This vintage is already enjoyable but will gain even more complexity with a few years of aging.
This Fleurie 2018 will ideally accompany rich and flavorful dishes, such as a roasted beef filet with herbs or duck breast with figs. It also pairs well with vegetarian dishes like wild mushroom risotto or caramelized onion tart. For dessert, try the bold pairing with a dark chocolate cake with orange.
