The wine comes from La Roche, a favorably located vineyard within Régnié, giving it more precision, grip, and length than a simple village wine. This origin immediately makes Régnié substantively important. What is Régnié? It is the 10th cru of Beaujolais, officially recognized since 1988. \u003cspan class=\"\" data-state=\"closed\"\u003e\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch2 data-section-id=\"14jexaw\" data-start=\"563\" data-end=\"586\"\u003eVineyards and region\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\u003cp data-start=\"588\" data-end=\"795\"\u003eThe story really begins here in the northern part of Beaujolais, where granite and microclimate largely dictate the style. \u003cspan class=\"\" data-state=\"closed\"\u003e\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cul data-start=\"797\" data-end=\"1721\"\u003e\n\u003cli data-section-id=\"1cv0f45\" data-start=\"797\" data-end=\"1096\"\u003e\n\u003cstrong data-start=\"799\" data-end=\"822\"\u003eLocation \/ Origin:\u003c\/strong\u003e Régnié is located in the north of Beaujolais and shares its microclimate with Morgon to the north and Brouilly to the south. This immediately places this wine in a more serious cru area within Beaujolais. \u003cspan class=\"\" data-state=\"closed\"\u003e\u003c\/span\u003e\n\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli data-section-id=\"1gnyrdl\" data-start=\"1097\" data-end=\"1292\"\u003e\n\u003cstrong data-start=\"1099\" data-end=\"1109\"\u003eSoil:\u003c\/strong\u003e The vines grow on pink schist-like granite. This is a poor, stony subsoil that suits Gamay well, providing tension, juiciness, and precision. \u003cspan class=\"\" data-state=\"closed\"\u003e\u003c\/span\u003e\n\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli data-section-id=\"hk3t3l\" data-start=\"1293\" data-end=\"1503\"\u003e\n\u003cstrong data-start=\"1295\" data-end=\"1309\"\u003eVineyard:\u003c\/strong\u003e The average age of the vines is 30 years, and the yield is 45 hl\/ha.

This keeps the fruit clearly in focus and allows the wine to rest and round out, without any oak influence. \u003cspan class=\"\" data-state=\"closed\"\u003e\u003c\/span\u003e\n\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\u003ch2 data-section-id=\"9tra1w\" data-start=\"2341\" data-end=\"2364\"\u003eGrape composition\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\u003cp data-start=\"2366\" data-end=\"2548\"\u003eThis wine is built entirely on 1 grape, exactly as you would expect from a classic Cru Beaujolais. \u003cspan class=\"\" data-state=\"closed\"\u003e\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cul data-start=\"2550\" data-end=\"2767\"\u003e\n\u003cli data-section-id=\"1jjaqps\" data-start=\"2550\" data-end=\"2767\"\u003e\n\u003cstrong data-start=\"2552\" data-end=\"2571\"\u003eGamay – Régnié:\u003c\/strong\u003e Gamay forms the complete basis here, giving the wine its juicy red fruit, fresh line, and spicy vibrancy. \u003cspan class=\"\" data-state=\"closed\"\u003e\u003c\/span\u003e\n\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\u003ch2 data-section-id=\"1kwabyh\" data-start=\"2769\" data-end=\"2800\"\u003eTasting notes and serving suggestions\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\u003cp data-start=\"2802\" data-end=\"3136\"\u003eGarnet red in the glass, with aromas of strawberry and sous-bois.
