Description
Domaine de la Grand’Cour, led by fifth-generation vigneron Jean-Louis Dutraive, is a historic estate in Fleurie producing some of the region’s most soulful and age-worthy Gamay. The ‘Clos Grand’ cuvée comes from the 8-hectare walled vineyard surrounding the family home, a plateau at 300m with deep granitic soils and vines averaging 45 years. Farmed organically and fermented with native yeast via carbonic maceration, the wine is aged in a mix of concrete, large old foudre, and oak barrels, with minimal sulphur and no fining or filtration. This cuvée offers aromas of dark cherry, violets and exotic spice, with a more rustic, earthy palate than its siblings, balanced by the domaine’s signature purity and energy. A quietly expressive Fleurie with sauvage charm and serious ageing potential.
