The 2024 Maison Piron Coq Léon is a vibrant and easy-drinking red from Beaujolais, combining the freshness of Gamay with a small proportion of Gamaret for added depth and character. Crafted in a fruit-forward style, the wine opens with lively aromas of raspberry, strawberry, red cherry and subtle spice, complemented by delicate floral notes.
On the palate, it is light-bodied, juicy and energetic, with bright red fruit flavours, soft tannins and refreshing acidity. A silky texture and hints of spice and earthiness add complexity, while the finish remains fresh, smooth and highly approachable. Designed for early enjoyment, it is a wine that delivers plenty of charm and drinkability.
Ben’s Recommendation: At Wine More Cellars, this is a fantastic choice for customers who enjoy fresh, fruit-driven reds that can be enjoyed year-round. Serve slightly chilled for maximum refreshment and enjoy over the next 1–3 years. Perfect with charcuterie, roast chicken, burgers, pizza, grilled sausages or casual Mediterranean-style dishes.
