Altiesse de Beauregard
2017
Region: Bugey, France
Grapes: Altesse
Vineyard: Organic
Cellar: Native yeast fermentation, unfined, unfiltered, very low added sulphur.
About: Luc Baeur farms less than two hectares on the historical Coteau d’Argis, a beautiful south-west facing slope overlooking the Albarine river at the foot of the Roche de Narse (a small rocky mountain with dramatic 200m high limestone cliffs, and an area officially protected for its rich biodiversity). From 70 uear old vines, the wine is concentrated but not at all heavy, with beautiful citrus, stone fruit and shimmering minerality.
