With this Beaujolais Villages 2018 in magnum format, Domaine Bélicard offers a generous and gourmet version of its 100% Gamay noir, AOC certified, grown on the light sands of Lancié. A full-bodied, expressive red wine, made for sharing and festive gatherings, in a decidedly natural yet always accessible style.
The grapes are vinified with a short maceration to preserve the fruity momentum of the grape variety. Fermentation takes place with indigenous yeasts, without oenological inputs, followed by 9 months of aging in concrete vats, which respects the integrity of the juice while giving it a beautiful roundness. This wine has nothing to hide: it shines with its frankness and conviviality.
The nose evokes bright red fruits, but also notes of pomegranate, black fruits, and candied fruits. On the palate, it is supple, smooth, with a generous texture and a beautiful freshness. The tannins are melted, the whole remains tonic and carried by a beautiful energy. This magnum is enjoyed in its breadth, unpretentious but with great pleasure.
Serve at 14–16 °C, without decanting, this Lancié 2018 is perfect for dinner aperitifs, charcuterie boards, bistro dishes, or generous picnics. A friendly wine as we like them, to drink now or within 5 years.
