Georges Descombes Regnie Beaujolais 2014

Tasting Notes

Régnié is the most recent Cru in Beaujolais and perhaps the least well known. Stylistically the wines have a velvety charm but perhaps without the minerality of some of the other Crus. They excel with an attractive fruitiness and vivid freshness that makes them perfect to drink in their first few years and the best examples, such as this, will age further. This one has a vivid crimson/purple colour with attractive fruity aromas (confit strawberry, herbs, flowers..) In the mouth it is very crispy and juicy with fresh, crunchy and vibrant fruit and a long gossamer finish; this little beauty is pretty hard to put down!
