Robert Parker's Wine Advocate

Bursting with aromas of sweet berries, cherries and wood smoke, the 2020 Beaujolais-Villages is medium-bodied, lively and succulent, with a fleshy core of fruit and powdery structuring tannins.

Features

Description

Alex Foillard Beaujolais Villages is a wine that stands out for its meticulous winemaking and ageing, as well as for its unique taste. This wine is produced in Beaujolais, France and is composed entirely of Gamay grapes, a variety known for its delicate and expressive fruit flavours.

Winemaking

In terms of winemaking, Alex Foillard Beaujolais Villages benefits from carefully selected techniques. The grapes are harvested by hand, ensuring the selection of the best bunches. Fermentation is carried out with indigenous yeasts, which contributes to the authenticity and character of the wine. A distinctive aspect of the process is whole cluster fermentation, including traditional carbonic maceration, a technique that enhances the freshness and fruity aromas of the wine.
This wine is fermented in cement tanks for 10 days, with pumping over every two to three days. Ageing is also carried out in cement tanks for 4 to 5 months. This method of ageing in concrete is crucial to maintain the purity and clarity of the wine's flavour. In addition, the wine is bottled without fining or filtering, which allows it to retain its natural and authentic character. Importantly, there is no bottle ageing, which means that the wine is best enjoyed in its youth.

Taste

Alex Foillard Beaujolais Villages is a true expression of the Gamay grape and the Beaujolais terroir. It is characterised by a refreshing opulence and a range of gourmand flavours. On the palate, this wine reveals a well-balanced acidity, which blends harmoniously with the notes of red and black fruits. In addition, the menthol aromas bring a unique sensation of freshness. This set of characteristics makes Alex Foillard's Beaujolais Villages an excellent choice for a variety of occasions and pairings.
