A Classic Beaujolais for Autumn!
Anne-Sophie Dubois is a young dynamic winemaker situated in the cru of Fleurie, Beaujolais. Her family moved from Champagne, where they were previously winemakers, to Beaujolais in 1992 and purchased a Domain. At 23 years old, Anne Sophie took over the Domaine in 2006. Since then, she has converted all her vineyards to organic and is currently 2 years away from getting her vineyards certified organic. In the cellar, she works with a minimal intervention approach. She uses a gravity-fed system with no chemicals other than a small addition of sulphur before bottling. She ages all of her wine in oak, stating:
“I am very attached to the ageing of my wines in barrel, but not to bring a woody taste. I love this material. The wood is natural, the wine breathes through it, it comes out clear and open.”
She also happens to be an artist, the beautiful labels are hers as well.

Les Cocottes is the first wine bottled in each vintage. It’s a semi-carbonic Macmration wine that is aged 6 months in wood. A fruity and elegant Gamay Noir that sings of Fleurie. It has those crunchy red berries with a mushroom and floral undertone. It’s a fresh and lively wine and a versatile companion to a wide array of food including cheese & charcuterie, grilled duck (or other poultry), French onion soup, or a good book!
