Thivin Beaujolais Villages Vignes D'ecussol 2020
GRAPE VARIETIES: White-juiced Gamay noir, age of the vines: 50 years.
TERROIR: Nicely east-facing on a slight slope behind the lovely village of Quincié-en-Beaujolais. On a light soil of granitic sand.
CULTIVATION: The vines are trained in goblets with grassed and flower strips for the diversification of the flora and to let our small, light tractors through, we alternate tilling with controlled natural grassing. Hand-picking.
VINIFICATION: Semi-carbonic maceration for optimum extraction of the fruit, vats filled and emptied by gravity to ensure gentle production.Taste: A wine full of fruit, crunchy and fresh with a fine, pure bouquet of Gamay and a fine, smooth mouth-feel. Ideal for an apéro with friends or a picnic in the country.
