Maison Coquard - Chiroubles 2007
The Chiroubles vineyard is the "highest" of the Beaujolais crus, situated at an average altitude of 400 meters on granitic sandy soils. This 2007 Chiroubles is silky, rich, smooth, and elegant. Once again, a beautiful expression of fruit, as only Maison Coquard knows how to deliver, with the added bonus of typical peony notes. A generous and indulgent wine to enjoy right now!

Rated estate (2014 guide) Selected (An estate or winery that impressed us with one or more of its wines, though we are unable to offer a general assessment of the style of its entire range)
About the estate:
"Christophe Coquard founded his own wine merchant in 2005. He offers a range of wines covering every appellation in Beaujolais, and more recently, the neighboring Mâconnais region. The labels are beautifully designed, and the prices remain reasonable. The company did not present its 2008 vintages as we had requested, but instead offered the 2009s, which have a more favorable reputation. In this vintage, several crus disappointed us, but the regional appellations were bursting with fruit.”
