2021 Clos De La Roilette Fleurie "Griffe Du Marquis"
Description: | Clos de la Roilette is a wine producer based in the Beaujolais cru commune of Fleurie. The winery produces a core range of three red Fleurie wines: the flagship Clos de la Roilette; the old vines Clos de la Roilette Cuvée Tardive; and the top cuvée, La Griffe du Marquis. Spanning a total of nine hectares (22 acres), the estate also produces a number of special cuvées as well as other wines, such as a Brouilly or a Moulin-à-Vent, under the Domaine Coudert label (Clos de la Roilette is owned and run by the Coudert family). The winery and clos (the "clos" title denotes a walled, or formerly walled vineyard) itself lies on the eastern edge of the Fleurie commune, close to the border with Romaneche-Thorins (one of the communes, along with Chénas, that constitutes the Moulin-à-Vent appellation). Indeed, it is Clos de la Roilette's proximity to Moulin-à-Vent (the east-facing vineyard slopes overlook Romaneche-Thorins) that is part of its origin story. |
