P'tit Grobis Blanc 2019,

Nicolas Chemarin


Nicolas Chemarin, nicknamed P'tit Grobis as a resident of Marchampt (Beaujolais), is the fourth generation of winegrowers on his family estate in the Beaujolais-Villages appellation, on stony land where he crafts wines of surprising depth and sincerity. In 2005, he took over two hectares of his father's vines and produced his first vintages in 2006. In 2008, he acquired additional vines and decided to devote himself solely to his estate, whose very steep terroir consists of poor, rocky soils over gray granite rock. The vines rest on the bedrock through very thin soil, and their roots plunge deep into the rock. Depending on the soil configuration, the vines are pruned in goblet or raised on stakes. Their average age is eighty years. The grape varieties, Gamay and Chardonnay, are classically Beaujolais. Nicolas also cultivates two other terroirs in the Régnié appellation: Les Bullats, with light, filtering sandy soils, and La Haute Ronze, very close to Morgon, whose deeper, clayey soils produce full-bodied wines. The vintages undergo long macerations (from 18 to 30 days) with punching down and temperature control (Nicolas works cold, around 20°C). Aging is partially done in temperature-controlled concrete vats for a third, the remaining two-thirds being spent in barrels of four to ten wines to provide oxygenation but little or no oaky sensation. Nicolas Chemarin is already well-known in the natural world for his delicious and fruity vintages, wines for pleasure, and for vintages from difficult and magnificent terroirs, endowed with admirable and complex mineral, aromatic and spicy notes.
All granitic Chardonnay as it should be, the white counterpart of the P’tit Grobis cuvée offers a pale opalescent yellow color. The harvest goes through direct pressing, followed by settling that does not rob the wine of all its fine lees. The sensations are complex and difficult to summarize: first, on the nose as on the palate, the lactic, yeasty note is present. The fresh acidity is accompanied by flint, notes of white flowers and a youthful expressiveness. Drink young, it expresses its youth well, and a little age reveals white fruits, a light fat and delicious notes.
Natural wine without added sulfites.
