Beaujolais "L`Aube à Javernières"

France
Beaujolais
2024

100% Gamay. 2020 was the first vintage of this bottling and the first Desvignes wine to not be strictly from within the boundaries of Morgon. This 0.84-hectare parcel is right over the Javernières line. These 20-30-year-old vines are certified-organic and planted on deep clay soils. The bunches are harvested by hand and partially destemmed. They are gently pressed and go into closed concrete vats for a partly carbonic fermentation; maceration is around 10 days with a submerged cap and no punchdowns. A very small amount of sulfur is added after malo and sometimes at bottling. The wine is aged in concrete vat for 7 months and bottled with a light, non-sterile filtration.
