Domaine du Vissoux Les Griottes Beaujolais 2017

Grillotes
🌍 Beaujolais, France🇫🇷

🍇 Gamay 100%

Made using grapes from the youngest vines on the estate, this cuvées brings out all the freshness of the red fruit.

It is called Les Griottes because the bottom of the vineyard is lined with cherry, wild cherry, and morello cherry (griotte) trees. This wine is particularly suited to enjoyable times with friends.


Fresh, fruity and easy-drinking is usually what you expect from a regional Beaujolais appellation. However, Les Griottes Cuvee from the duo Pierre-Marie and Martine Chermette is rather colourful and showcases plenty of substance.
