91pts James Suckling
A generous, ripe style of Beaujolais with plenty of black cherry, blackberry and blueberry character, but also some pleasantly sappy tannins that provide crispness at the finish and keeps it light on its feet. Drink now.
Importer Notes
The elegance, freshness, bright fruit, and utter quaffability of this beautiful wine will immediately blow you away. One glass is never enough.
The Dupeuble esate has been producing wine in the far south of Beaujolais for more than 500 years and is still run by descendants of the original family. In that time, it has changed its name only three times, and the winemaking has remained rooted in tradition. It is still made simply, fermented with wild yeasts, bottled unfined and unfiltered and with minimal sulphur additions. The result is consistently one of the best bargains in the region - a delicious, bright, light, cherry-scented red.
