Château de La Chaize
Fleurie "Clos de La Chapelle des Bois"
Beaujolais
Fleurie “Clos de La Chapelle des Bois” is a precision-driven expression of cru Beaujolais, built for perfume, finesse, and structural detail rather than simple fruit. Sourced from a single-vineyard monopole in Fleurie, it captures the appellation’s signature floral lift and silky texture while delivering the depth and concentration that can only be expected from a limited single-site bottling. The wine’s personality is defined by freshness first, with layered red and dark berry tones, subtle spice, and a refined mineral line that keeps the palate energized and long.
Winemaking
Each plot is vinified separately. Fermentation in stainless steel, accompanied by semi-carbonic maceration. 10% whole cluster fermentation.
Vintage
A fiercely hot and dry summer in 2022 led to reduced yields, but the concentrated fruit from the arid conditions resulted in fantastically rich and flavorful wines.
