Description

Domaine des Marrans is family run estate founded in 1970 in Fleurie, in the northernmost section of Beaujolais. Today, the owner and winemaker is the young and talented Mathieu Melinand, who joined the family domaine in 2008. With old vines and some of the top sites in all of Beaujolais, Mathieu is growing some of the most pristine Gamay out there. His Beaujolais Nouveau comes from the hamlet of Saint-Jean d’Ardieres, just outside of Morgon, where the terroir turns from granite to clay to limestone. With gorgeous purity and lift, and a seductive bouquet that evokes fresh red berries, warm spices, and potpourri, this wine is a delicious additon to any holiday table.

Domaine Des Marrans

Domaine des Marrans is located in Fleurie, in the heart of the northernmost section of Beaujolais. Founded in 1970, the current proprietor is the young and talented Mathieu Mélinand, who joined the family domaine in 2008. With old vines and crystalline granite sites, Mathieu is using organic practices to grow some of the most pristine Gamay out there. The vines are pruned in the traditional Gobelet vinetraining method and the harvest is done only by hand, using small crates to minimize oxidation. In the cellar, vinification is old school, with semi-carbonic maceration using whole clusters, minimal intervention, and only indigenous yeasts used.
