Beaujolais Blanc 2009

2009 Beaujolais 100% Chardonnay

Domaine Paire Beaujolais Blanc 2009 is a delightful expression of 100% Chardonnay from the renowned Beaujolais region. This white wine showcases a medium body with a bright acidity that invigorates the palate, making it refreshingly crisp. The fruit intensity is prominent, offering luscious notes of ripe apple, pear, and hints of citrus that dance elegantly across the tongue. While it possesses a certain creamy texture typical of Chardonnay, the wine remains dry, allowing its vibrant fruit characteristics to shine through. Perfectly crafted, this vintage is a true testament to the enchanting qualities that Beaujolais can deliver, making it a superb choice for any occasion.

Beaujolais

Beaujolais, located in the heart of France, is one of the most diverse winegrowing regions in the world. Spanning rolling hills and lush valleys, Beaujolais' vineyards cover a dizzying array of terroir. The cool, refreshing breezes from the Saône River play a major role in moderating Beaujolais' vineyards, sending fog and chilly air across the region. This tempers the daytime heat and allows grapes to ripen slowly but fully. Cooler-climate grape varieties thrive in the northern part of the region, producing delicate and aromatic wines, while further south, the warmer, sun-drenched areas yield bigger, bolder wines. This diversity of conditions allows Beaujolais to produce a wide range of wine styles, each reflecting the unique character of its growing regions.
