A stunning Cru Beaujolais. There are ten Cru Beaujolais (recognized sites that consistently produce superior quality), Regnie is the most recent to be elevated to Cru status. Thulon is the champion of Regnie, as it's their primary focus. This is a small family estate, only 20 acres in total. The vineyards are hillside sites, requiring all work to be done by hand. The wine has a purple color, moderate depth, it bursts with an expressive, pure fruit aroma, it's supple, smooth, but with a lots of complexity. Whole clusters are used to lift the fruit character. It's accessible from the moment that it's opened. I like it with a slight chill. It holds up well into day two. Serve with a variety of lighter meat dishes, poultry or medium sharp cheeses. Total production 450 cases. Drink now through 2022.
