The Wine

Julien Guillot at Clos des Vignes du Maynes crafts this Mâcon Rouge from a mix of old Gamay varieties, including thick-skinned, dark-juiced 'teinturiers', with no added SO2. The 30- to 80-year-old vines are organically farmed in clay and limestone soils. After semi-carbonic maceration, the wine ages 18 months in large tronconic wooden vats. It pours a deep red, with aromas of blackberry, tart cherry, strawberry, black pepper, roast meat, fennel, citrus peel, and violet. The palate is ripe and elegant, offering citrusy black fruits, earthy and mineral notes, and a long, chalky finish. Julien calls it “indestructible,” built to last. Perfect with a farm chicken in sauce, best decanted or opened in advance, and ideal to cellar for five to ten years. This is a hyper sensual tonic!

About the Wine Maker

Julien Guillot’s family has tended this land since the end of the Second World War, when his grandfather arrived. In poor health and unable to drink wine with sulphites, his grandfather set out to craft wines without chemicals, avoiding chaptalisation and using only natural yeasts. Since 2001, the wine world has evolved enough for Julien’s creations to shed the label of 'a-typique'. With real character, Vignes du Maynes wines are well worth trying, offering joyful and expressive flavors.
