NV Château de Lavernette 'Granit Réserve' Blanc de Noirs Brut Nature

Natty Champagne style bubbles from Burgundy?!

100% certified biodynamic, estate grown and hand harvested Gamay.  The wine undergoes malolactic naturally, and there is only one small sugar addition, which is done at bottling with the addition of yeast. Aged on the lees between 18 and 24 months, and bottled without dosage.  The commune of Leynes and its old four-story Château de Lavernette are right at the crossroads of Beaujolais and the Mâconnais. The château has been passed down through the Lavernette family since 1596. Today, the estate is in the hands of Xavier and his American wife Kerrie. The nose is refreshing and delicate. A perfume of red and white fruits combine into a freshly picked fruit salad topped with delicate cream.  The bubbles are feathery and smooth with a velvety texture. Great juice!
