ABOUT THIS WINE
Trenel Beaujolais Villages 2022 is a French red wine produced by Trenel & Fils from 100% Gamay Noir grapes. The vines, aged between 30 to 60 years, are planted on south-east facing slopes in silty clay granite soils within the Le Perréon and Clochermerle areas of the Beaujolais Villages appellation. The 2022 vintage was marked by challenging weather, including drought, which resulted in reduced yields but high-quality, concentrated fruit. Maison Trénel, founded in 1928, prioritizes authenticity and the purest expression of terroir in its wines.

WINE MAKING PROCESS
Trenel Beaujolais Villages 2022 is produced using hand-harvested Gamay Noir grapes. The winemaking process involves a 8-10 day maceration period, with 30% of the grapes destemmed. Fermentation is carried out at regulated temperatures to preserve fruity aromas. Following fermentation, the wine is aged for 6 months in concrete tanks. It is then bottled with light filtration and without fining.
