Domaine de Colette RegnieV

Wine Notes

Domaine de Colette is in the small village of Lantignié, regarded as the top village in the cru of Regnié. Run by the humble Jacky Gauthier, it was founded by his father René. Gauthier studied enology at the tender age of 17 and immediately started working with his father in the vineyards. Their steep pink granite vineyards are home to vines of about 45 years old, but one plot, called Colette, reaching over 80 years. The grapes undergo carbonic maceration followed by a gentle pressing. A pleasant ruby-red colour, the wine presents fresh red fruit flavours in its youth, but over time evolve into delightful complex ripe fruit flavours.

A deep ruby red colour, fresh and aromatic on the nose, with subtle and beautifully integrated tannin, making it the perfect partner to cold meats, simple chicken dishes and fish in creamy sauce.
