Tasting Notes
From grapes purchased from a single parcel in Fleurie, located at the northwest of the appellation and has granite terroir with very shallow soil. Vineyard very steep with southwest facing vines. Vinification in concrete tanks and then aged in 60 hL oak foudres for 6 months. - Importer Note
92 Points 'From Jean-Louis's highest-altitude vines, perched above La Madone, the 2017 Fleurie Carolon offers up a pretty bouquet of ripe Griotte cherry, strawberry and rose petal. On the palate, the wine is medium to full-bodied, fine-grained and concentrated, with an unmistakably stony, mineral finish. " - William Kelley, The Wine Advocate Sep 2018
If you've ever heard of Domaine de la Grand Cour in Fleurie, then you probably should know about Jean-Louis Dutraive.
