With a new partnership in Beaujolais, Remoissenet again is revolutionizing its role as négociant, letting a talented grower take the lead and bringing to the world a wine that is greater than the sum of its already excellent parts.

Domaine Julien Clément is a small domaine, with just under 25 acres of vines in the cru Fleurie appellation. Vineyards are located near Poncié, at altitude, which results in a fresher, more Burgundian Gamay wine.

VINEYARDS: Sourced fruit from vineyards near Poncié, in the appellation of Fleurie, from the estate of Domaine Julien Clément. These higher-altitude plots are in general cooler than other areas in Fleurie, thus fruit is more balanced. Vines are farmed sustainably. Soils are poor, dominated by the classic pink granite of cru Fleurie. With this particular wine, Remoissenet consults with aging, bottling and distribution; the Clément estate manages vine cultivation and harvest.

WINEMAKING: Hand-harvested. Fermented partially full cluster on indigenous yeasts in temperature-controlled, stainless steel tanks. Aged in tank. Unfined; lighly filtered.

TASTING IMPRESSIONS: Aromas of spring violets and spice, red and blue fruits, very lively and fresh. Medium-bodied, well-balanced; fresh red plum and cherry notes. Suave and long.

PAIRING SUGGESTIONS: Charcuterie; pork sausages; grilled chicken
