"Why not take a drive in this unusually complex and elegant wine for this appellation, with very silky tannins and delicately lemony acidity supporting the generous body. The minerality builds seriously at the long, very polished finish. Drink or hold."
Product Description:
One of the hottest regions for value-based, utterly scrumptious wines these days is Beaujolais - and the Thevenet family is behind one of the founding domaines to bring this often-overlooked area back to the forefront!
Thevenet's 2020 Regnie "En Voiture Simone...” comes from 50-60 year old vines and is a gorgeous expression of Regnie's telltale fleshy, fruity balance that makes Gamay so compelling. In the hands of a less talented winemaker this fruit might fall flat, but in the hands of Charly Thevenet (Jean-Paul's son, and current shepherd of the estate) this is a world-class expression of this top Cru.
Outstanding from start to finish, and a mind-blowing value!!
