Yann Bertrand, Fleurie 'Folie' 2021

If producers like Yvon Metras and Jean Foillard are the trailblazers of the natural wine movement in Beaujolais, then the torch has now been passed to Yann Bertrand. Born in Fleurie and mentored by Metras, Bertrand utilizes a crop of old vines, which he farms biodynamically, to make a delicate, aromatic style of Beaujolais.

This is natural Beaujolais at its brightest and freshest, most elegant and food-friendly. When people refer to Beaujolais as a crowd-pleaser, this is the bottle they have in mind.
