Pierre-Marie Chermette Griottes Beaujolais '23

From one of Beaujolais' most respected producers, this Cru Beaujolais glows with vivid purple-ruby tones and an explosive nose of black raspberry, violet pastille, and crushed pepper. The winemaker's traditional semi-carbonic fermentation and aging in old foudres create a wine of remarkable purity - flavors of blueberry, cocoa powder, and a pronounced mineral edge unfold across featherlight tannins. Earning 94 points, the wine finishes with hints of licorice and dried herbs, showcasing why Chermette remains a benchmark for traditional Beaujolais winemaking.
