Trenel by M.Chapoutier Cuvée Rochebonne Beaujolais

Maison Trenel has always sought authenticity for both its fruit liqueurs and its wines. Authenticity of the fruit, authenticity of the terroir. The purest expression of their origins. Born from a love of its land with its Burgundy traditions, there are numerous similarities between Maison Trenel and M. Chapoutier, their shared love of excellence being the first.

The regional appellation “Beaujolais” was recognized in 1937 and is the most extensive of the region.
It produces fresh and fruity wines, perfect for the first days of summer.
Trenel’s Beaujolais Cuvée Rochebonneis produced on the east of the “Pierres Dorées” area, on three parcels east orientedand facing the Mont Blanc. They’re located in the village of Lucenay and are particularly ancient: the older one has been planted in 1922.
The soil is very clayey and gives roundness and structure to the wine.
