A beautifully structured Julienas from a great producer throughout Beaujolais and the Cote de Beaune. Luxurious and concentrated, this shows an abundance of wild berry fruit and a supple texture. Its caressing mouthfeel makes this a wonderful bistro style red to enjoy with triple cream cheeses, white meats, and even steak frites!
Armand Heitz Description
Julienas is a land of shale and blue stone. The same types of soil as on the Côtes de Brouilly and Côtes de Py. In general, these characteristics call for intense and full-bodied wines. At the estate, I prefer to highlight the finesse and elegance of the terroirs. My style of vinification with short vatting, without punching down and just a few pumping over, goes very well with this masculine appellation.
