Domaine de Petit Pérou Tu M'tiens au Jus Beaujolais 2020

Domaine du Petit Pérou lies in the Beaujolais wine-growing region, 400 km south of Paris and 50 km north of Lyon. They cultivate 18 hectares of vines, over 10 hectares of them in Cru Morgon. The majority of the vines are grown on clay soils, with only 3 hectares on sandy soils. They also have 1.5 hectares of Morgon Côte de Py, the hill overlooking the Cru Morgon, with stony soils rich in trace elements.

This wine is not a reserve wine made in the usual method of selecting the best barrels for separate bottling. Instead, it is made entirely as a separate wine with a greater emphasis on intensity, complexity, structure, and cellaring potential.
