This family owned domaine is located in the Fleurie appellation in the northern part of the Beaujolais region. Husband & wife Bruno & Valerie Coporet represent the 4th generation of the family to make wine here. The vineyards spread over 9 ha & are located on gently rolling hills with granite-based soil. The south-east facing exposure combined with an altitude of over 350 metres ensure the vines yield grapes with considerable ripeness whilst retaining a delicate aroma & structure typical of the apellation. In order to retain the vibrancy of the aromatics & intensity of the flavours, the wines are bottled unfiltered in springtime following the harvest. ...

A lovely golden colour & floral/grapefruit notes are the immediate impressions made by this great Grand Cru Riesling. On the palate it is mouth-filling with full-bodied citric fruit, a hint of sweetness on the mid-palate before the acidity kicks in & it finishes dry. This is text-book Alsace Riesling; Rich & full, but with a dry finish, superb! ...

It's not everyday that one gets the chance to savour twelve year old Alsace Pinot Gris from a top vineyard & vintage. The site translates as ' Red earth' on account of its darker, richer loamy soils, which when coupled with the VT quality gives a brilliantly emphatic nose, fully ripe, unstoppable power, presence, with those distinct bacony flavours that seem to go h&-in-hand with the vintage everywhere in Europe! It's sweet but tastes dry! A must have wine for now till 2016. ...
