Product Description

Domaine des Marrans is located in Fleurie, in the heart of the northernmost section of Beaujolais. With old vines and crystalline granite sites, they are growing some of the most pristine Gamay we know. The vines are prunetd in the traditional Gobelet vinetraining method and the harvest is done only by hand, using small crates to minimize oxidation. In the cellar, vinification is old school, with semi-carbonic maceration using whole clusters, minimal intervention, and only indigenous yeasts used. The wines are then aged in large older barrels for 10 months before bottling. This wine is remarkably pure and fresh, with a grain and spice to the old vine Gamay that underlines the quality terroir from which they are grown.
