Beaujolais, France
100% Gamay
The husband and wife team of Rémi and Laurence Dufaitre are making wines from their vineyards around the Brouilly and Côte de Brouilly crus in the Beaujolais region. Rémi started accumulating these plots in 2006 and finally began making wine in 2010 in a style heavily influenced by organic and low-intervention pioneers such as Jean Foillard. 'Prémices' is a parcel of 50-70 year old Beaujolais-Villages vines, whose grapes are fermented and aged in concrete tanks, with a very short maceration. We love the flavors of red fruit like raspberry and pomegranate combined with the bright acidity and minerality.
