✨ wine.spec_sheet
Domaine des Nazins is a distinguished estate bottling championed by the legendary Georges Duboeuf, who famously elevated the global reputation of the Beaujolais region. Crafted from 100% Gamay, this wine showcases the classic granite-rich soils of the area, which impart both structure and a subtle mineral complexity. Utilizing traditional semi-carbonic maceration, the winemaking process coaxes out vibrant red fruit aromas of wild strawberry and raspberry, complemented by delicate floral notes of violet. This estate selection represents the historic partnership between dedicated local growers and the Duboeuf family, delivering an authentic, terroir-driven expression of Beaujolais heritage.
