Jean Foillard helped redefine what Cru Beaujolais could be — one of Kermit Lynch's "Gang of Four" who traded sugary Nouveau for living, low-intervention wine. His Fleurie is the floral, perfumed counterpoint to his Morgons: old-vine Gamay on pink granite, semi-carbonic fermentation, native yeast, minimal sulfur. The 2011 is a back-vintage bottle from a private collection, drinking in a mellow, mature register today. It leans more toward dried fruit and savory tones than youthful pop. A graceful, ready-to-drink Fleurie for the Foillard faithful.
