Juliénas 'Les 4 Cerisiers' Domaine de Boischampt 2022

‘Les 4 Cerisiers’ Juliénas by Domaine de Boischampts, from the Beaujolais region, is a true expression of character and tradition. The production area, spanning 580 hectares between Juliénas, Jullié, and Pruzilly, has a viticultural history dating back to the Roman conquest, with the name Juliénas inspired by Julius Caesar. Since 1938, this label has obtained the AOC appellation, confirming its position among the ten crus of Beaujolais and telling, with its unique characteristics, a millennia-old story of winemaking.

Juliénas 'Les 4 Cerisiers' Domaine de Boischampt is born on the granite foothills of the high Beaujolais mountains, characterized by steep slopes ranging from 20% to 45%. The poverty of the soil and its adaptability to the vine give the wine a natural tannic power, a feature that requires skill and mastery in producing high-quality wines. The experience of viticultural tradition, from the Roman conquest to today, has shaped cultivation and winemaking techniques. The vineyard in question, with its 100% Gamay soils, has a successful history in producing a complex and elegant Juliénas, requiring 12 months of aging in oak barrels followed by an additional 12 months in the bottle, ensuring impeccable structure and palate.

'Les 4 Cerisiers' Juliénas has character, with notes of fresh black fruits and a touch of woodiness. The intensity of the ruby color blends with fragrances of strawberry, rose, and peach, while in the mouth, the wine is broad, rich, concentrated, and guided by tight tannins. A red wine to be enjoyed both young and to be aged in the cellar to unleash its full potential. With aging, it achieves greater complexity and maturity, fully expressing all the nuances of its grapes.
