For this cuvée, sourced from 1950s-era vines on crumbly pink granite and quartz, the domaine utilizes roughly 25% whole-cluster fermentation in concrete tanks followed by twelve months of aging in used barrels.\n\nThe 2018 vintage, characterized by a hot, dry summer following a wet spring, provided sufficient groundwater to support the vines through to full physiological ripeness.  This results in a structured Gamay defined by deep, fine-grained tannins and a pronounced mineral drive, maintaining tension and architectural precision despite the warmth of the growing season.\n\nThe magnum format further serves to emphasize the wine's depth, density, and long-term potential.","brand":"Weygandt Selections","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":46147581608184,"sku":"10140","price":85.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0709\/8001\/0232\/files\/IMG_1776.jpg?v=1757115412"},{"product_id":"2020-domaine-de-la-grand-cour-dutraive-le-clos-de-la-grand-cour-cuvee-vieilles-vignes-fleurie-magnum","title":"2020 Domaine de la Grand Cour (Dutraive), Le Clos De La Grand Cour Cuvee, Fleurie Vieilles Vignes - Magnum","description":"","brand":"Polaner Selections","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":46147745743096,"sku":"11285","price":105.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0709\/8001\/0232\/files\/IMG_3480.jpg?v=1775064466"},{"product_id":"domaine-anita-fleurie-poncie","title":"2022 Domaine Anita, Fleurie, Poncie","description":"\u003cp\u003e\u003cspan\u003ePoncie is one of Fleurie's finest lieu-dits, and winemaker Anita Kuhnel does it great justice.

The 2021 vintage, characterized by a cool, challenging growing season, resulted in lower potential alcohol and preserved a focused, high-tension acidity that underpins the wine’s fine-grained, structured palate.\n\nThis interplay between the site’s inherent mineral-rich density and the vintage’s structural nerve yields a wine of precise, deliberate architecture.","brand":"Richard DiBlasi","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":48135186710776,"sku":"20479","price":38.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0709\/8001\/0232\/files\/IMG_3472_704a60e9-9a17-4d26-bf16-1a99161e929c.jpg?v=1775590114"},{"product_id":"2024-domaine-de-la-grand-cour-dutraive-fleurie-tous-ensemble","title":"2024 Domaine de la Grand Cour (Dutraive), Fleurie, Tous Ensemble","description":"The Domaine de la Grand’Cour \"Tous Ensemble\" Fleurie is a direct expression of the Dutraive family’s long-standing organic viticulture and low-intervention approach in Beaujolais.
