Tasting Notes
This Cru Chiroubles displays a shimmering purple color. It has complex floral aromas, especially violets, with notes of fruits and spices. It is medium-bodied, fresh and fruity, with soft tannins. The nose matches the palate.
Vineyards
The grapes for this Flower Label wine come from 17.3 acres of traditional Gobelet-trellised southwest-facing vineyards with vines more than 20 years old.
Winemaking
Harvesting of this wine is conducted manually, in whole bunches, and the grapes are destemmed before pressing. Semicarbonic maceration and malolactic fermentation takes place in stainless steel tanks.

December 2024
A fruit-driven red, showing peaches, blueberries, lavender and oranges on the nose. It’s medium-bodied, peachy and juicy on the palate. Delicious now.
