Founded in 1888 and now in the hands of Maison Louis Latour, Fessy has built up a portfolio of vineyards over time, and today owns 70 hectares across nine of the ten crus in Beaujolais. From the most southerly of all the crus, this is a great expression of Gamay, displaying ample red juicy fruit aromas. This is refined and silky with gorgeous summer berry characters. A must summer buy from a stunning vintage.
