The 2024 Maison Piron Fleurie is an elegant French red wine from the Fleurie appellation in Beaujolais, Burgundy, produced by Maison Piron. Crafted from Gamay, this wine reflects Fleurie's granite-rich soils, renowned for producing fragrant, refined reds with vibrant fruit and delicate floral character. Its anticipated aromas reveal fresh raspberry, ripe cherry and wild strawberry, complemented by notes of violet, rose petals, subtle spice and gentle minerality.
On the palate, it is expected to be light to medium-bodied with silky tannins and lively acidity. Flavours of juicy red cherry, cranberry and raspberry unfold alongside hints of red plum, dried herbs and delicate peppery spice. Its bright fruit character is balanced by a smooth texture and elegant structure, creating a graceful Beaujolais red with freshness and finesse. The finish is clean and persistent, leaving lingering impressions of red berries, floral notes and subtle earthy complexity.
