2020 Domaine Cheysson Chiroubles Clos Les Farges, Chiroubles Beaujolais

The 2020 Domaine Cheysson Chiroubles Clos Les Farges shows the lifted perfume, supple texture, and bright red‑fruit purity that define Chiroubles at its best, with 2020’s warm, generous vintage giving it a little extra depth and sweetness of fruit.

Aromatics and Fruit Profile - Ripe plum and black cherry, with a vivid perfume of dried herbs and dried florals. Additional layers of raspberries, strawberries, and violets, reinforcing the cru’s high‑altitude elegance. These notes place it squarely in the “perfumed and high‑toned” end of Beaujolais, but with more fruit weight than a cooler year.

Palate and Structure - Medium body with a luscious, fruit‑driven palate of sweet red and black cherry and plum Medium‑plus acidity keeps it lively; fine‑grained tannins sit in the medium to medium‑plus range, giving gentle structure without hardness

Moderate finish led by fruit and acidity, clean and refreshing rather than dense or tannic. This balance makes it a classic Chiroubles: supple, bright, and elegant.
