Metrat Fleurie La Roilette 2020
Metrat Fleurie La Roilette 2020
From vines planted after 1945 this cuvee consists of the ‘younger vines’ mostly 40-60 years old planted in the heart of this outstanding lieu-dit La Roilette. This is also vinified in large cement vats with very gentle vinification of gently submerging the cap of the ferments giving very fine tannins. Each year we taste the different cuvees with Bernard we agonise about which cuvee of La Roilette to buy and for the tiny difference in price we usually opt for the vieilles vignes cuvee although in warmer years it is often the classic La Roilette cuvee which shows best in the first few years. This cuvee always has excellent depth and character right after bottling so in 2020 we have selected this cuvee - so you don't need to wait to enjoy this cuvee right now.
