✨ Tekniske specifikationer
Domaine du Pourpre is a classic expression of Beaujolais, crafted under the legendary négociant house of Georges Duboeuf, the 'King of Beaujolais' who popularized the region's wines globally. Made entirely from the Gamay grape, this wine hails from vineyards characterized by granite-rich soils that impart a distinct mineral undertone to the bright fruit. The name 'Pourpre' pays homage to the brilliant, deep purple hue of the freshly pressed Gamay juice. Utilizing traditional semi-carbonic maceration, the winemaking process coaxes out vibrant aromas of red berries, violets, and subtle spice while keeping tannins remarkably soft and approachable. This technique captures the joyful, fruit-forward spirit that has defined the bistros of Lyon and Paris for generations.
🍾 Om vinhuset / producenten
Les Vins Georges Duboeuf har hjemsted i Romanèche-Thorins i det franske Beaujolais og blev grundlagt i 1964 af Georges Duboeuf, der ofte hyldes som 'Kongen af Beaujolais'. Négociant-huset revolutionerede regionens internationale profil ved at slå et slag for domæneaftapninger, opbygge tætte partnerskaber med lokale vinbønder og gøre det årlige Beaujolais Nouveau-fænomen verdensberømt. Huset ledes i dag af Duboeuf-familien og er fortsat dybt engageret i at formidle Gamay-druens mange terroirfacetter på tværs af de ti Beaujolais Crus – herunder Moulin-à-Vent, Morgon og Juliénas – sideløbende med et nøje udvalgt sortiment fra Rhône-dalen og Pays d'Oc.
