Description

Marc Delienne Fleurie Brouilly “Pierreux” 2019

Domaine Marc Delienne produces this Domaine Marc Delienne Brouilly Pierreux , a red wine from the region of Brouilly.

Made from grapes grown in Pierreux, with its deep, granite soils, this wine is a lovely addition to your collection according to William Kelley from Wine Advocate.

A wine bursting with raspberry, cherries spices and a pleasant, smoky hint. Juicy, structured and vivid on the palate with lovely raspberry fruit. Stylish with real impact, and wears its alcohol.

Grapes are harvested by hand. It is sorted and macerated without additives. Pressing is carried out after 9 days, followed by maturation in barrels lasting for 11 months.

Bright & Easy Reds

Easy drinking red wines with bright fruit aromas and low tannins. The wines are often released without much aging in tank, oak barrels or bottle, and are meant to be drunk early

These wines typically can be nejoyed without food, and are usually served cooler. They can be light bodied wines like Beaujolais, or light extraction styles that do not emphasize tannin & color extraction

Carbonic Maceration

Carbonic maceration is a form of whole bunch fermentation, when whole bunches of uncrushed grapes ferment from the inside out. It traditionally requires an environment full of CO2, some winemakers allow a percentage of crushed grapes to ferment & release the CO2.
While a natural process, it has been adopted as a stylistic choice to make wines fruiter & soften their tannins
