100% Gamay. Fruit Roilette's oldest vines go into their "Cuvée Tardive"--and a small portion of that wine is reserved for the smallest of all Roilette production, La Griffe du Marquis. The only difference is aging in barrique instead of foudre and for longer. As for all of the Coudert family wines...
