Fleurie Lafarge-Vial, 2023

Fleurie Lafarge-Vial 2023 is a refined expression of Beaujolais from one of Burgundy’s most respected names. Made by the Lafarge-Vial estate, it brings together elegance, purity, and a distinctly terroir-driven style that has made the domaine a reference for serious, artisanal wines.

Tasting Notes
In the glass, it typically shows a bright, youthful ruby color. The nose is lifted and expressive, with red berries, violets, and subtle earthy spice, while the palate is known for its silky texture, fresh acidity, and finely drawn fruit. Fleurie from Lafarge-Vial is generally graceful rather than powerful, with a mineral streak and a persistent, delicate finish. It can be enjoyed now for its freshness and charm, but it should also develop added complexity over the next several years, gaining more savory and floral nuance with time.

Production
Fleurie is one of the most prized crus of Beaujolais, known for its granite-rich soils and naturally elegant wines. Lafarge-Vial works with a careful, low-intervention approach, emphasizing healthy fruit and transparent expression of site. Vinification is handled with a focus on preserving freshness, finesse, and the signature floral character of the appellation.

Food & Serving
This wine pairs beautifully with roast poultry, duck, mushroom dishes, charcuterie, and lighter game preparations, as well as creamy vegetarian plates. Serve slightly chilled, ideally around 14–16°C, and decanting is optional but can help if you want the wine to open up more quickly.

Producer
Lafarge-Vial is a small, highly regarded Burgundy estate associated with the Lafarge family, long celebrated for their precise and authentic winemaking. The domaine is known for producing wines of remarkable detail and purity, and its reputation extends well beyond Burgundy among collectors and lovers of artisanal French wine.
