Description
WINEMAKER: Pierre Marie Chermette
VARIETY: Gamay
REGION: Beaujolais, FR.
VITICULTURE: Biodynamic
This mouthwatering crowd-pleaser is named after a grove of cherry trees that flank the vineyard. The fruit comes from 40-year-old Gamay vines, grown in dark granite soils around the Chermette homestead in Saint-Vérand, Southern Beaujolais. In contrast to their age-worthy Crus from Moulin-à-Vent and Fleurie et al., Chermette aims to produce something light-to-medium-bodied, bright and cherry-fruited with reach-for-another-glass charm.
The winemaking has remained unchanged for decades. Traditional whole-bunch, semi-carbonic fermentation in concrete tanks followed by maturation in tank and old oak casks are still the order of the day. Twenty-twenty four was a cooler year in Beaujolais, gifting, at this level, a thirst-quenching and moreish Gamay with loads of crunch, blueberry and strawberry charm and cherrystone tang. As always, it is a delicious, vibrant wine and fabulous value.

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.
