the Durdilly family has been growing Gamay here for generations. Paul has been at the helm since the 70s and presides over a handful of older plots planted on the trademark limestone soils of the Pierres Dorees (the Golden Stones that we talked about with the Saint Cyr wines a little while back). This is Paul's entry level bottling and is a blend of 40-80 year old plots planted on high elevation steep slopes, none of which see chemicals. Fermentation is with native yeast, semi-carbonic, then aged in a combination of concrete and old foudre before getting bottled unfiltered with minimal sulfur. This wine is a steal.
