Clos de la Roilette Beaujolais Fleurie Cuvee Tardive 2022 750ml

Roilette was the name of the prior owner’s prized race horse. Despite the name, Clos de la Roilette is in no way a clos. The vines are on the border of Moulin-à-Vent and have a similar structure to that cru compared to most Fleurie. The name “tardive” is misleading and often causes confusion. The grapes were not late-harvested. The cuvée consists of the estate’s oldest vines and the wine always benefits from time, usually a few years, before showing its true potential.
