Domaine Maxime Troncy - Beaujolais Oppidum 2018
2*Coup de Coeur
Hachette
“ Favorite d in the previous Guide for his 2017 Chassignol windmill wine, Maxime Troncy reaffirms his (very) promising potential and produces a ‘simple’ Beaujolais that is anything but simplistic. This cuvée comes from venerable 70-year-old vines planted on a hill that once housed a Roman oppidum. After 8 months of aging in oak barrels, it unfolds intense and generous aromas of black fruits, sweet spices, toasted notes, and Zan. On the palate? Volume, concentration, body, and velvety tannins enveloped by ripe fruit and well-integrated oak. Character. ” (Le Guide Hachette des Vins 2022)

About the wine:
Favorite In the previous Guide, with his 2017 Chassignol windmill wine, Maxime Troncy confirmed his (very) promising potential and produced a “simple” Beaujolais that is anything but simplistic. This cuvée comes from venerable 70-year-old vines planted on a hill that once housed a Roman oppidum. After 8 months of aging in oak barrels, it unfolds intense and generous aromas of black fruit, sweet spices, toasted notes, and Zan. On the palate? Full-bodied, concentrated, and rich, with velvety tannins enveloped by ripe fruit and well-integrated oak. Full of character.
About the estate:
Maxime Troncy, a young winemaker, established his vineyard in 2013. He produces, among other wines, Moulin-à-Vent, Chénas, and several cuvées of red Beaujolais. He began the transition to organic farming on his 10 hectares in 2019.
