Wine Description:
This Cru Beaujolais Chénas 'Les Carrières' is produced by Paul-Henri Thillardon, who established his domaine in 2008. Vineyards are farmed organically, working some of the vineyards with a horse and using biodynamic treatments. Grapes are harvested manually and fermented using whole clusters. Maturation lasts for around 8 months in a combination of neutral oak and concrete tanks. Wines are bottled unfiltred and unfined creating a complex, earthy style of Gamay.
Pros:
  • Attractive ripe fruity style with crunchy red fruit and floral notes

Cons:
  • Overtly earthy style may be off-putting to some

Wine Expert Note:

The Paul Henri Thillardon Chénas 'Les Carrières' has a pale to medium ruby color with purple hues, indicating its youthfulness. On the nose, it offers fresh red fruits, such as cherries, raspberries and plums, accompanied by floral notes of violets and a hint of spice. The palate shows a medium-bodied structure and silky tannins. The flavors of red berries continue to dominate, accompanied by subtle earthy undertones and a touch of vegetal character. The wine's vibrant acidity adds freshness and balance, leading to a long and satisfying finish.
