2018 Louis Terral Vera

There is new blood in Bugey and he comes by the name Louis Terral. Louis recently settled in the historic stronghold of Mérignat making wines that are truly unique for the region. Pure, ethereal examples of mountain gamay. Named after Vera Rubin, the second female astronomer. Louis' Beaujolais training at work here with a semi-carbonic, 15-20 day long maceration. This would be the most 'wild' of his three wines, a combination of 80yr old vines and 40yr old vines, both playing a key role. Serious and powerful.

Varietal: Gamay.

Region: Bugey, FR. 

Viticulture: Certified Organic/Biodynamic.
