GUIDE HACHETTE 2020 Our STARS

Stars from GUIDE HACHETTE des Vins 2020 are:

2 Stars Coup de Cœur
PIERRE DUPOND
JULIENAS Les Capitans 2018
Traditional winemaking: wholebunch vinification & ageing in stainless steel tank. On an alluvium soil of Piedmont, the Gamay seems to have admirably expressed itself. Powerful yet elegant nose with notes of violet and blackcurrant. On the palate, beautiful ripeness with a great density and firm tannins. To age in the cellar.

VINS AUVIGUE
MÂCON SOLUTRÉ Moulin du Pont 2017
Regularly in the guide, Auvigue crafts here a beautiful Mâcon Solutré, model of the kind, very representative of the appellation: wide aromatic range of flavours with floral and fruity notes, fleshy, supple, lasting and well-balanced palate. A wine of pleasure.

1 Star
DOMAINE ROMY
BEAUJOLAIS Les Pierres Dorées Vieilles Vignes 2018
A Beaujolais expressing a wide aromatic range of flavours: classical black fruits from the ripe vintage are completed by spicy and floral (peony, violet) notes. On the palate, tannins are supple and silky and leave a pleasant sensation of roundness.

1 Star
DOMAINE ROMY
BEAUJOLAIS Impérial Rosé 2018
This 2018 vintage has a pale pink colour coming from a very short maceration. Appealing from the first nose with notes of peach while a beautiful liveness develops on the palate.
