Tasting Note:
Having shone thanks to its great Crozes-Hermitage Syrah, the Graillot family is on its way with the Domaine de Fa to conquering Beaujolais! This delicious and tasty nectar is intense and balanced and unfolds throughout the tasting. The very fresh fruity aromas with a slight musky side will surprise you with their crisp flavour.
About the Winery:
The legendary Graillot family has a long history of making wine in the Northern Rhone, where their ability to produce some of the most age-worthy and delicious Syrah is matched by only a select few producers. Owner and winemakers for both Domaine des Lises and Domaine Alain Graillot, Maxime and Antoine Graillot, decided to look North for new challenges that extend beyond the dramatic slopes of the Rhone Valley. Their love of Gamay led them to the bucolic vistas of Beaujolais. The two brothers struck gold in 2013 when they purchased prime, organically farmed, sites in Fleurie and Saint Amour. With these pristine Granite vineyards, the Graillot family has announced themselves as a force to be reckoned with in a region that is experiencing a vinicultural Renaissance.
