Maison Lucien Le Moine Beaujolais 'Chénas' 2021
Vintage Character
Chénas 2021 from Lucien Le Moine offers a vibrant and refined interpretation of this distinctive Beaujolais cru, where the granite-rich soils of the northern appellation impart both freshness and depth to the wine. The 2021 vintage in Beaujolais was marked by a cool and challenging growing season, resulting in lower yields but delivering wines with heightened aromatics and lively acidity—a hallmark of the year that appeals to those seeking finesse and energy in Gamay.
Tasting Profile & Food Pairing
This wine opens with expressive aromas of wild strawberry, fresh violets, and a touch of crushed herbs, while the palate is layered with juicy red cherry, cranberry, and a subtle peppery spice, all carried on a silken texture. A long, mineral-driven finish underscores its food-friendly nature, making it a versatile companion for dishes such as pan-seared duck breast, mushroom risotto, or the classic French Saint-Marcellin cheese, each of which highlights the wine’s supple fruit and floral lift.
Winery Background
Lucien Le Moine, founded by Mounir Saouma and Rotem Brakin, is a boutique négociant renowned for their meticulous, small-batch approach to winemaking. While celebrated for their Burgundies, they bring the same dedication to Beaujolais, sourcing fruit from select sites and collaborating with growers who emphasize sustainable viticulture. Their winemaking philosophy centers on minimal intervention, employing native yeasts and extended aging on lees to craft wines that are expressive of their origin and built for complexity. This commitment to quality ensures that each cru, including this Chénas, authentically reflects the unique character of its terroir.
