Description
WINEMAKER: Michel & Sylvain Tête
REGION: Beaujolais, FR
VARIETY: Gamay
VITICULTURE: Organic
Made from 35-year-old Gamay vines that give clean, dark, concentrated fruit and violet aromatics. Les Capitans is a rare single vineyard in the northernmost Cru of Beaujolais. This is a terrific young red Burgundy to enjoy now or hold for some years.
Domaine du Clos du Fief is run by the father-son team of Michel and Sylvain Tête. This is a rare 4th generation Cru estate in Juliénas and Jullié, based at the far Northwest sector of Beaujolais. The vines are grown on the high altitude hillsides of Juliénas and Jullié with their roots in granite rich soil. Michel took over in 1978 after studying in Beaune, where he learned many techniques that he now uses on his own wines to great acclaim. Sylvain returned to work with his father in 2014 and they produce wines that use traditional methods as well as bringing modern techniques to move with the times. In the vineyards they have low yields and use meticulous farming methods that together with their winemaking results in serious and mouthwatering examples of terroir driven reds.

Come curious. Leave with a new favourite.
We don’t tell you what to drink. You don’t need to know your varietals, regions or vintages, and you certainly don’t need to pretend you do. Tell us what you like, hate, what you’ve tried or curious about — we’ll take it from there. Sometimes the best bottle is the one you didn’t know you wanted.
