Wine Description:

Located near Morgon and Fleurie, Chiroubles is home to bright and lively young wines such as this La Forge from Domaine de la Chaponne. Fragrant aromas of fresh summer berries are balanced with soft red fruit flavours and smooth tannins.

Chiroubles, the highest vintage of Beaujolais, is located on steep hillsides composed of granite sandstone. 
Fine and very fruity, our Chiroubles will “slide” in the mouth revealing aromas of blackberries and blueberries until its 6th year.
To be enjoyed as an aperitif or accompanied by white meats.

Tasting Note:

The Chiroubles is fine and fruity with real elegance. The terroir is very typical of the Beaujolais Cru appellations and consist largely of granitic soils. The wine shows very inviting aromas of blackberries and perfumed blueberry fruit. Due to the structure of the wine it is very capable of cellaring for up to 6 years. it has a seductive velvety texture which is really gorgeous and aromas of blueberry and blackberry fruit.

Food Suggestion:

 Pair with white cheeses or beef dishes.
