The effortlessly delicious 2022 Jean Paul Dubost Beaujolais-Villages Lantignié Rouge is a wine that delivers cru quality at a remarkable value.
Domaine Dubost Morgon, established in 1902, is now helmed by fourth-generation vigneron Jean-Paul Dubost who is dedicated to organic farming and non-interventionist winemaking. Produced using classic semi-carbonic maceration of whole clusters, this Gamay is bottled with minimal intervention, no added sulphur and just a light filtration.
On the nose, this Beaujolais-Villages Lantignié offers enticing aromas of earth, wild berries, and a touch of peppercorn. The palate is round and creamy, with a medium body, fine tannins, and a succulent character. The wine’s beautifully balanced nature leads to a powerfully aromatic and fresh finish.
A super value Beaujolais from an excellent, modern winemaker.
