Fleurie Côte de Poncié Patrick Tranchand
Description
Red
Complexity and distinct character !
Fresh and elegant
I established my own estate in 1994 with the help of my brother and father. My estate is situated on the hillside overlooking the Moulin à Vent vineyard.
It is at an altitude of 320 metres that the Gamay Noir vines draw their nourishment from the Poncié granite. The Fleurie Cru is one of the most elegant wines of the Beaujolais. It is grown in a lush green setting, at the heart of sublime lieux-dits, and produces wines whose carmine-red colour is truly striking.
