2020 Eric Texier Calico, Beaujolais, France
$19.99
Muscat d’Alexandrie, Muscat Petit Grain, Muscat Ottonnel, Chasselas Blanc, Chasselas Gris and Pinot Gris blend from the Beaujolais.
The Vignenvie project is quite unique: many inhabitants of the small village of Charnay work this land together as a community. Eric then vinifies the wines and redistributes it to the workers. The work is heavily inspired by the agricultural philosophy of Masanobu Fukuoka.
Calico comes from a one hectare parcel co-planted with a dizzying amount of varietals.
