Description

For an eminently attractive wine, what name could be more evocative? It is quite easy to imagine how a poet like Shakespeare would treat the alluring subject of wine and roses. one only has to raise a glass of Fleurie to the lips and already inspired verses begin to flow! Coincidentally, the origin of the name Fleurie has nothing at all to do with flowers, but with an officer of the roman Legion. Wine represents, in a certain way, the greatest gift that Rome made to France. Fleurie is also the name of the village where this wine is produced. It is one of the largest cru Beaujolais in terms of volume, as well as prestige, to the obvious satisfaction of its owners. Finely perfumed Fleurie is “delightful like the first days of spring.”

This Fleurie shows a deep, intense crimson red color. A sumptuous array of floral and fruit fragrances flatterthe senses: irises, violets, roses, black currant, strawberry, peach and raspberry. Distinctively elegant and velvety.
