Country: France / Perle de Granit
Variety: Gamay Beaujolais
Winery: Domaine de Colonat / Beaujolais-Villages
Granit is the sandy granite hillside soil of northern Beaujolais. The vineyard is a neighbor to the Fleurie appellation. This textured wine is rich with cherry and red-currant flavors that are rounded out and have just hint of tannins. The wine could soften even more so wait until early 2016.
