"La Fortune is a single lieu-dit on the slopes above the northern portion of the village of Bouzeron, planted to young vines. This is fermented in open-top wood fermenters, with about one-third whole clusters to produce this forward, accessible wine, with a lovely cherry fruit scented with violets. On the palate, the wine is fresh and youthful, lacking the substance of La Digoine."
"This has a pretty nose of mulberries, wild raspberries, violets, chocolate orange and red tea. It’s medium-bodied and bright with fine-grained, lightly chalky tannins. Stones and minerals underneath the high-toned red fruit. Drink or hold."
Winemaker Notes:
"Rarely have we had the opportunity to pick grapes from Fortune as beautiful, wonderful, sugar-laden. Fruity, greedy and tender at the same time, you can drink it now or wait two or three years to enjoy all the freshness and grain."
Alcohol: 14%
