RIFT 69

Its technical director, Jean-Pierre Rodet, first made wine under the guidance of Jules Chauvet, recognised as the “father” of the natural wine movements. RIFT 69 is crafted with absolutely no addition of sulphite from harvesting to bottling. This wine gives off cherry, blackberry and bilberry aromas, embellished with spicy and mineral notes.

Many millions of years ago, a north-south rift formed in the earth’s crust giving rise to the highland that today forms the Beaujolais-Villages appellation area. Here, the steep and complex terroirs that are made up of granitic, magmatic and metamorphic rock allow the Gamay Noir grape to brilliantly express its personality.

RIFT 69 is crafted with absolutely no addition of sulphite from harvesting to bottling. Maceration of the partially de-stemmed grapes, that were hand-picked at peak ripeness, is in stainless steel vats and lasts around a fortnight.
