Winemaker Notes
Made from 65 year old vines on a sandy and clayish soil, this Fleurie shows a beautiful deep garnet red robe. The nose is beautifully complex with aromas of black and candied fruits. The mouthfeel combines concentration and elegance.

Complex aromas of black currant, blackberry and a definitive layer of field herbs are this wine’s calling card. Slightly-grippy tannins take a backseat to bruised raspberry and field grass on the finish. Pair with creamy dishes, sauteed kale and sliders. This is a fantastic Fleurie!

The 2023 Domaine Gilles Copéret Fleurie “Les Roches,” crafted from old-vine Gamay rooted in Fleurie’s pink granite soils, reveals a deep garnet hue and opens with aromas of vibrant berries layered with subtle earthy nuances. On the palate, it glides with silky ease, offering a harmonious interplay of bright and dark fruit flavors. A superb match for ground round and sharp cheddar on a toasted baguette, or for a classic French bistro favorite like steak tartare, where the wine’s freshness and supple texture complement the dish’s savory depth.

An attractive Fleurie with aromas of of dried cranberries, blood oranges and hints of mint and chocolate. Medium-bodied. A mellow and fleshy palate offers plenty of fruit framed with fine tannins. Lingering and delicious.
