Domaine Chevalier-Métrat

Sylvain et Marie-Noëlle Métrat work their immaculate vineyards traditionally in this beautiful corner of Odénas just on the southern side of the Mont Brouilly. This family farm is on a small scale just 9 hectares now, but done with real passion and much hard work.
When we last visited, Sylvain did not want to waste a moment waiting around for us to arrive, so we found him working away in the vineyards nearest the winery - the best place to wait for us without missing a moment amongst his old bush-vines where there is always something to do!
In an effort to not over extract flavour or tannins Sylvain avoids any pigeage during fermentation instead he gently submerges the cap and creates more of an infusion. This gives delicacy and an elegant complexity to the juice. The wines are the best we have tasted from this part of the world and offer incredible value for gorgeously crafted, serious wines from beautiful old vines. These are pretty, complex and really joyous.

Beaujolais Summer | Mixed 12

The Summer Beaujolais Mixed 12 Case: The Ultimate Cru Tasting Tour

Gamay is a grape of remarkable transparency, acting as a perfect translator of the earth beneath it when planted on the right slopes by passionate, independent growers. This traditionally made, 12-bottle mixed case features two bottles each of six distinct Crus, demonstrating exactly how the complex geology of the region shapes what is in the glass. Brimming with charm, style, and effortless light-footedness, this collection is the perfect standard for serious Gamay and provides an ideal transition into summer dining.

Inside the Mixed Case:

  • 2022 MOULIN A VENT Empreinte, Domaine Paul Janin et Fils: Sourced from pure granitic soils, this wine represents a masterclass in precision. It marries exceptional elegance with fragrant notes of jammy dark raspberries, strawberries, and a lovely peppery lift.

  • 2023 FLEURIE Cuvée Tardive, Clos de La Roilette: Grown on an unusual mix of manganese and clay, then aged in century-old oak casks. It delivers a deeply structured, velvety richness and texture with fine, ripe tannins and sweet kirsch liqueur on the finish.

  • 2024 MORGON Côte de Py, Domaine Rochette: Sourced from the heart of the AOC on classic blue rock soils. A powerful and rich edition with intense aromas of cherries and blackberries, offering brilliant ageing potential.

  • 2024 CÔTE DE BROUILLY Les Grillés, Domaine Chevalier-Métrat: Beautifully fragrant and lifted, featuring vibrant notes of red currants, raspberries, and blueberries. Richly fruited with great freshness and flesh delivered in a lip-smacking style.

  • 2023 RÉGNIÉ Cuvée des Braves, Domaine Rochette: Crafted from venerable vines up to 80 years old. Everything feels entirely measured and assured in this juicy, supple, and gently persistent wine, making it quite possibly the domaines finest release.

  • 2024 BROUILLY Les Mines, Domaine Chevalier-Métrat: Tended from ancient bush vines on sunny southern slopes, this wine features a pretty nose of violets, cherry, and raspberry. The palate has good richness and lovely flesh, mixing perky cherries with smashed fresh strawberries.
