Gregoire Hoppenot 2022 Fleurie Origines

The Wine

Greg Hoppenot is one of Beajolais' hottest producers, which is saying something, given Cru Beaujolais is on fire as a category, and Hoppenot is one of the region's younger producers. In 2020 Hoppenot was named 'Newcomer of the Year' by La Revue du vin de France. He passionately follows several tail markers as he creates his winemaking path - old vines organic farming, and minimal intervention. Sprinkle in his innate talent and a great vintage and you get this amazing value!

Tasting Notes: Surprisingly dense with enticing aromatics of spiced plum, dark cherry, raspberry, rose petal, dried violets, and, for a bit of seriousness, hints of earth.
