La Boheme – Festejar
Out of stock
Widely regarded as a legend of the French natural wine scene, Patrick Bouju & his partner Justine Loiseau now manage around 9 hectares in Auvergne, France. Patrick and Justine, who make wine under the name ‘Domaine la Bohème’, also buy grapes from other growers to craft some of their wines (i.e. Negociant wines), in order to push their offering beyond their own vines. This is where the pair can get quite creative in their grape choices, showcasing lesser known grape varietals like Mondeuse & Altesse. Patrick Bouju wine (or vin de la Boheme as we sometimes say in fun in the office) is in hot demand, especially in Germany, France, the UK and USA, and the domaine wines showcase great age-ability too making them somewhat collectable.
A Gamay, Pinot Noir and Merlot Pet Nat with notes of blackberry and cranberry, with a plummy finish and acidic twang. Dangerously smashable and slightly drier than previous vintages.
