Description
Luscious red fruits and a touch of spice come through, and the signature freshness we can count on (and love) from a nouveau.
2024 was an incredible tough vintage. For some winemakers the yields were 30% of what they should be. That being said, the quality is superb – the fruit has concentration and acid in the perfect balance (some people even citing the legendary 2014 vintage). A small, but perfect, vintage.
Raphael Saint Cyr is the fourth generation vigneron at Domaine Saint Cyr in Anse, on the southern edge of Beaujolais. Formerly Domaine de Bellevue, it was founded by Raphael’s great-grandfather.
Raphael and his wife took over in 2008 and immediately focused on the vines in the northern Crus of Morgon, Regnié, Chénas, and Moulin-à-Vent. They converted the entire 23 hectare domaine to certified organic, now it is the largest organic domaine in Beaujolais. A huge undertaking and achievement.
Each cuvée is split into single vineyard parcels, with the terroir the name for each wine. All cuvées are fermented with natural yeasts in concrete tanks and then aged in old barrels for 12-18 months.
