“The 2023 Fleurie Origines reveals inviting aromas of crushed petals, candied plums, cherries, and soft earth, enhanced by a hint of cocoa powder. Medium-bodied to full-bodied, with moderate acidity, it offers a refreshing clarity of fruit and juicy, vibrant flavors. It features a beautiful integration of numerous talc-like tannins that add structure while clinging delicately to the cheeks.” (Wine Advocate 2025)

About the estate:
A former wine merchant for Trenel, Grégoire Hoppenot took over Jean-Paul Champagnon’s 10-hectare estate in 2018 to strike out on his own. The plots of young vines are certified organic; the rest are in the process of conversion.

About the wine:
The 2023 Fleurie Origines reveals inviting aromas of crushed petals, candied plums, cherries, and soft earth, enhanced by a hint of cocoa powder. Medium-bodied to full-bodied, with moderate acidity, it offers a refreshing clarity of fruit and juicy, vibrant flavors. It features a beautiful integration of numerous talc-like tannins that add structure while clinging delicately to the cheeks. Smooth and approachable, this wine is effortless to drink, even if the finish is slightly shorter than desired.
About the estate:
I discovered the wines from this new winery during my tastings in Villefranche organized by Inter Beaujolais, and Hoppenot’s first vintages impressed me enough to warrant a special mention. If he can maintain this level of quality, importers should be lining up at his door.

About the wine:
The Origines Fleurie is simple and crisp, with hints of toasted notes.
About the estate:
Grégoire Hoppenot is one to watch closely. He is one of those winemakers who, before establishing his own estate in 2018, gained valuable experience at places like the Chermette estates, Maison Trénel, and the Bel-Air winemakers’ cooperative. He has successfully assembled a portfolio of high-quality vineyards among the appellation’s finest lieux-dits. Gentle whole-cluster vinification is followed by aging that combines tank and previously used oak, allowing the wine to best express its nuances while maintaining an approachable and refined character. The 2018 vintage proved promising, and the 2019 vintage is particularly successful. We look forward to discovering the upcoming vintages.
