Fleurie 2022
More vintage
Fleurie's vineyards stretch over many hills and valleys, then slope gently down to the Saône plain. The nose seduces with its intensity and complex aromas with notes of berries. The palate is silky and elegant. A balanced complexity which, after a few minutes, reveals its fruity notes. The great aromatic richness of this wine of patience will reveal itself over time.
