Anne-Sophie Dubois Fleurie l' Alchimiste 2022
Description
Variety: Gamay
Born to two vignerons in Champagne, Anne-Sophie was only 25 years old when she took over eight hectares in the heart of Fleurie, in 2007. She has quickly become a rising star in Beaujolais, taking techniques she learned while working in Volnay to create gamays of intense elegance and finesse.
These grapes are harvested from a southwest facing vineyards in Fleurie where soils are highly granitic. Anne-Sophie refrains from using new wood and instead ages this wine in cement vats and larger neutral oak casks.
Winemaker Notes
From southwest facing vineyards in Fleurie AOC. Soils are highly granitic. Dark berried fruits, tempered by mineral and black tea nuances. Seamless and very elegant.

I like the violet and cassis notes here mingling with mulberries and purple plums. It’s medium-bodied, fresh and lively, with purple fruit wrapped up in silky tannins. Lots of energy.
