Fresh Impression Rouge
WINE DETAILS
50% Mourvèdre from Mont Ventoux, 20% Grenache, 20% Gamay from the Loire, and 10% Ploussard from Patrice's vineyards in the Jura.
Patrice personally handpicked all the grapes from organic or Biodynamic vineyards. 80% of the blend underwent direct pressing, while the remaining 20% enjoyed maceration, all carried out in stainless steel. Fermentation by natural yeast at lower temperatures, capturing the essence of the grapes.
The nose of this wine is intriguing and playful, featuring red berries and cherries with a savory edge intertwined with hints of celery salt, smoky bacon, and hibiscus. On the palate, the wine maintains its fresh and bright character.
There's a touch of spice and a burst of juicy red fruit, accompanied by notes of rose, goji berry, jasmine, and hibiscus. It's all about embracing freshness, vibrancy, and sheer drinkability.
Domaine Hughes-Beguet
Set amongst the lush landscape of Mesnay, is the home and vineyards of natural winemaker, Patrice Beguet. Drawing inspiration from his love of jazz and the diverse scenery of Jura; his range of wines is electric, textural, and complex.
Patrice left a busy life working in IT, in Paris to return to Jura, where he was born, and pursue his dream of making natural wine. He loves this region because whilst it is well known for wine production, the landscape is not dominated by vineyards. There are mountains, fields, and forests. Patrice lives and works amongst this beautiful greenery with his two young children.
Patrice strongly believes in minimal intervention and healthy living.When it comes to organics he says “I will never use any synthetic products. Not for me, my employees, my children, my neighbors or my customers”.
We first encountered these wines at the infamous natural wine shop in Arbois, Les Jardins de St Vincent, run by Stéphane Planche. Stéphane always has his ear to the ground on the most new and exciting natural wine projects in Jura and beyond. A big inspiration for our shop, it brings us joy to see these bottles grace our shelves.
