Domaine Nicolas Delfaud - Macon Verze Rouge 2022
Domaine Nicolas Delfaud Description
Bright, juicy red fruits with a lovely ripe structure. The Gamay vines for this Macon-Verzé Rouge were planted in 1977, in clay-limestone soils with some marl. The domaine is in conversion to organic farming and also uses some biodynamic practices. Grapes were hand harvested, and after 15 days of carbonic maceration the wine was fermented with natural yeasts before being left on its lees in a combination of vats and old oak casks for 8-12 months.
A classic Maconnais Gamay with poise and typicity. Light, delicate garnet colour with earthy and strawberry fruit on the nose. Mouthwatering acidity balances the moderate tannins and elegant red fruit.
