Château Thivin - The Seven Vines - Magnum 2023
Château Thivin is located in Mont-Brouilly , in Beaujolais . It belongs to the Geoffray family, which has been producing wines for 6 generations. Zaccharie and Marguerite Geoffray bought Château Thivin and its two hectares of vines around the estate on June 8, 1877. Each generation following them has contributed new plots to the construction of the estate and developed the cultivation and winemaking methods. The estate's vines are located mainly on the Côte de Brouilly and Brouilly Crus, but the family also produces white, rosé and sparkling Beaujolais vintages. The family is constantly looking to optimize cultivation practices, to ensure a perfect balance of the vineyard's ecosystem with healthy vines and grapes of optimal quality.
Les Sept Vignes is made from Gamay Noir with white juice in the majority and a few Chardonnay vines that bring finesse. It is a blend of 7 plots of Mont Brouilly. The harvest comes from an entirely manual harvest and is vinified partly in whole bunches by gravity in order to use neither pump nor conveyor for the harvest. After pressing, the aging lasts 7 months in oak tuns .
Grape variety: 100% Gamay
