Cru Juliénas "Roche Bleue" and "Les Mouilles"

The Cru Juliénas est is a rich, dark wine. We proudly present two Juliénas, made with grapes from two different domains: the "Roches Bleues" comes from Château de la Bottière. Those wines have received numerous prizes and awards. Both have been appreciated in the Parker Guide (86/100 and 88/100), the Wine Spectator and many reference French guides such as the Hachette Guide.

Its purple hue is dark and superb. Its very expressive nose hints of ripened dark berries. Round, powerful, concentrated, smooth tannins. A remarquable harmony. A wine of character to appreciate with a delicate meat like a farm raised limousin veal sauté.
