About This Wine
Les Griottes means 'the small cherries' in reference to the grove of cherry trees that flank the vineyard. Vissoux's entry cuvée is drawn from 20-40 year old vines grown on dark, granite soils around the Chermette homestead in Saint-Vérand (central Beaujolais). The winemaking here has remained unchanged during Pierre-Marie Chermette's tenure, so traditional, whole bunch, semi-carbonic ferment in concrete and maturation in tank and generations-old oak tuns. The difference here is a short maceration (4 or so days) and less time in vats. The aim here is to produce something light bodied and red fruited with reach-for-another-glass deliciousness.
