Christian Ducroux's Regnie vines

Regnie/New York! Charly Thevenet's 2008 Grain et Granit and Christian Ducroux's 2009 Beaujolais Nouveau "Prologue"!

We're still taking calls from Beaujolais fans hoping for more of the 2007 Charly Thevenet Grain et Granit, surely one of the most beautiful wines of the vintage. The 2008 has just arrived and it's a stunning wine in the same style as the 2007, perhaps with a little extra richness as the month of September featured sunshine and north winds which dried and concentrated the grapes. Limited quantity so don't delay. From Christian Ducroux in Regnie, we've just received his 2009 Beaujolais-Villages Nouveau Sans Souffre! Certified Bio since 1985, Ducroux has mastered the art of wine-making without sulfur, producing wines of great aromatic complexity, completely expressive of the granitic terroir. He is one of the most advanced practioners of Biodynamic wine making and we are honored to have his unique Beaujolais at Chambers Street!

Thevenet, Charly 2008 Regnie Grain et Granit

Charly Thevenet is the son of Jean-Paul Thevenet and this is his second vintage from his own 1.5 hectare plot of 75 year-old vines in Regnie, farmed with biodynamic methods and vinified with minimal SO2 (20mg/L total). The wine is aged for 12 months in 4 year-old Burgundy barrels. In 2008 he harvested quite late looking for a bit more maturity and while the wine is quite ripe it is beautifully balanced and has good length. The aromas of cherry, strawberry and violet are very pretty with quite deep and persistent black cherry and berry fruit on the palate. A delicious wine to drink now but it should develop nicely for another 5 to 8 years. Discountable to $28.79 on a case, it is well worth the price as the top Cru Beaujolais remain one of the greatest values in wine today. Highly recommended!
