Community Tasting Note

GArpaia Likes this wine:

Friday, October 21, 2022 - Ripe, creamy and complex.
Medlemon. Pronounced. Yellow flowers, apple, lemon, ripe. Mint. Pastry, cream, almond cake. High acidity, med body, 12,5% abv. Long.

Btb with Pouilly-Vinzelles Les Longeays which is zingy and brighter with a solid palate.

This is a cuvée that includes fruit from all of the south-facing slopes they work in Fuissé.

NB
A negoce-turned-vigneron. Fabien Duperray is a well known wine agent name, representing some of the finest Bourgogne estates, including DRC, Arnaud Ente, and Coche-Dury among others.
In 2007 he purchased gnarly old Gamay vineyards in Fleurie and Moulin-à-Vent (some 140+ years old), and he added some Chardonnay parcels from select Côte Macconais sites in 2014, which he shares with Christophe Thibert. Farming is biodynamic, everything is done by hand (tractor-free), and yields are low. The name of the winery pays homage to Jules Chauvet, the winemaker, scientist, and Beaujolais native who is often credited for launching the natural wine movement.
