Domaine Saint Cyr Beaujolais La Galoche Rouge

Domaine Saint Cyr La Galoche Rouge is a joyful, easy-drinking Gamay from Beaujolais made by Raphaël Saint-Cyr in Anse, from vines about 25-40 years old planted on clay-limestone soils. It’s organically farmed, uses natural yeast, undergoes cold carbonic maceration (about 3-15 days depending on the vintage), and is aged primarily in concrete for roughly 6 months. It’s bottled unfined and unfiltered with minimal sulphur added at bottling.

The wine offers fresh red fruit character: strawberries, raspberries, and cherries, with subtle herbal and spice undertones. Its texture is light and fluid, with silky tannins and bright acidity, finishing gently with aromatic herbs and a clean lick of minerality. Excellent as a go--with-anything wine and great for drinking now.
