2023 Clusel-Roch ‘Traboules’ Coteaux du Lyonnais, France
$24.99
Clusel-Roch is one of Côte-Rôtie’s top producers, and this is their Beaujolais-style (and Beaujolais adjacent) bottling of Gamay. It's sourced from the Coteaux du Lyonnais appellation tucked between the southern end of Beaujolais and the northern tip of the Rhône valley.
Despite it's generous dark fruit, there’s a dash of something meaty and peppery in this wine that feels very Côte-Rôtie; a reminder of this appellation sits so firmly between the two regions.
Organic farming.
