Domaine de La Madone Bourgogne Blanc Les Plasses

Vintage: 2020
Description: When does cellar-aged Beaujolais achieve the noble character of a Vosne-Romanée? When it's crafted by Domaine de la Madone. This remarkable estate, consisting of 17 hectares on the slopes of the Madone hill in Fleurie, has been in the Despres family for six generations. Over 20 years ago, it was a rare discovery, and from the start, it was clear they were producing something extraordinary. Winemakers Olivier and Bruno Bererd understand that the key to exceptional Beaujolais lies in the terroir. Their village of Le Perréon boasts mineral-rich soils, high-altitude vineyards, and older, low-yielding vines, much like its neighboring Beaujolais crus. The result? A "basic" Beaujolais that rivals top cru wines, with remarkable aging potential, all at an incredible value.
