"A joyful explosion of black cherries and blackberries that are wonderfully fresh and bright. Then, with a little aeration, an intense note of violets blossoms. Just enough soft tannin to underline this and give it clear shape, making it an immediately appealing introduction to the new wines of Beaujolais. Striking mountain freshness at the finish. Drink now."

--------THE PRODUCER--------

Domaine Anita is one of the newer superstars of Beaujolais. Originally from Mâcon, Anita Kuhnel’s first passion in life was professional cycling, that is until her former husband introduced her to her destiny – winemaking. In 2015, she took over 18 hectares of vines first planted in 1973 and created Domaine Anita. Domaine Anita includes some of the  most prestigious crus of Beaujolais including Moulin à Vent, Morgon, Chénas, Fleurie, as well as some plots located on great terroirs of the Beaujolais-Villages appellation. Anita’s viticultural practices are specific to each plot, but always within her overarching philosophy of sustainable viticulture, with minimal treatments, green harvesting and strong canopy management. She now makes exceptional Beaujolais, priding herself on producing wines that respect terroir and quality of fruit equally.
