'Libre Pensée' Yuka & Clotaire Michal 2022
Yuka & Clotaire Michal's 'Libre Pensée' is an elegant expression of Beaujolais, born from vines over 60 years old that embrace the rich pink granite soils. The winery works with used barrels and spontaneous fermentation. The nose releases aromas of sweet violet and ripe cherry, with sweet hints of chocolate. The palate is balanced and persistent, with silky tannins and an intense but elegant mineral freshness. Ideal with meat dishes, try it with 'paté en croute' or ‘coq au vin’

Colour
Deep ruby red
Scent
Blackberry and blueberry open to ripe cherry, dried violet, fresh hints of chocolate
Taste
Round but with fine tannins, juicy and vertical on the palate
Temperature

When to open
To enjoy an artisanal wine at its best, we recommend you to let it 'breathe' at least 15-30 minutes before serving
When to drink
Wine good to drink now, but that can have a beautiful evolution after resting for a while in your cellar
Glass
Medium open goblet
Perfect for young and medium bodied red wines which don't require excessive oxygenation to open. The opening, slightly tighter than the body of the glass, favors the concentration of aromas towards the nose, enhancing the perception of aromas and limiting the dispersion
