Prunelle de Navacelle’s Régnié is a captivating expression of old-vine Gamay from a rising star of the Beaujolais region. Sourced from 80-year-old vines rooted in pink granite soils at 390 metres in the Les Vergers site, the wine reflects the cool elevation and mineral complexity of this underappreciated cru. Practising biodynamic and certified organic, Prunelle employs whole-cluster, semi-carbonic maceration, followed by gentle pressing and fermentation with native yeasts, then ageing for twelve months in old barrels and large foudres without fining, filtration, or added sulphur. Perfumed with wild strawberry, cranberry, and violets, the palate is fresh and vibrant, showing delicate red fruit, fine spice, and a thread of granitic minerality that carries through a long, harmonious finish. A pure and precise wine that reflects both its terroir and the thoughtful hand behind it.
