A section that straddles the crus of both Fleurie and Morgon, rich in sandy granitic soil. The estate wines from these appellations are uniquely different even though all the vines are in the same area. The complexity found in the vineyard is demonstrated through these different cuvees.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe fruit is manually harvested and sorted. In the cellar vinification is cold carbonic and semi carbonic maceration (approximately 30% juice) at 10-12 degrees with natural yeasts in large concrete vats. Bottling is done in Spring according to the moon, all wines are unfined and unfiltered.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe estate encompasses 9 hectares under vine, 7.5 in production. 2022 marked ten years since Yann took over the estate from his parents. At the beginning of his tenure Yann isolated two parcels (Fleurie Chaos and Morgon Dynamite) and employed biodynamic farming practices only on them. Analysis was done every year, the soils were teeming with life and now all farming at Bertrand is Biodynamic.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e2024 is best expressed in Yann’s words\u003cbr\u003eYou know what they say : tradition obliges ! And 2024 is no exception to the rule, since we have been spoiled by hail again ! Yes, you read that right, 9 hailstorms in 12 years, a score worthy of an apocalyptic film. But rest assured, even if Météo-France seems to want to rewrite history, this vintage evokes a beautiful nostalgia for my first years of winemaking, with the white hair that is added to my experience (and no, it is not stress, it is wisdom!). In short, all this to say that I am delighted to offer you a vintage that will take you on a journey through time... without a DeLorean, but almost !\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e2023, a year with cooler slower ripening gave beautiful fruit. Yields were 60% less due to hailstorms on the 9th and 11th July that wreaked havoc in Fleurie and Morgon.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThis release sees wines from both 2023 and the beginning of 2024. \u003cbr\u003eThe estate cuvees: Beaujolais OH, Fleurie Coup d’Foudre, Fleurie Cuvee du Chaos, Morgon Dynamite and Fleurie Emile.

Made without addition of any kind. Cherry red and a tiny touch cloudy. Muddled raspberry, ripe strawberry, rosemary – absolutely delicious aromatics.\u003cbr\u003eSerious tension on the palate. Tight phenolics pulling to the middle of the palate and small berries – cranberry, candied raspberry, fresh strawberry – pushing back out against the herbaceousness. Lots of energy across the palate. Acidity is lifted, and the wine has a beautiful, fine texture. It is very interesting, very delicious, and very easy to drink, although it invites a little more pondering over than in some years. A very cool iteration of the Super Juice.  An early-harvest from the A Block at Willoughby Bridge is used as a sort of starter ferment, direct-pressed to tank and later moved to old puncheon, where healthy yeast were encouraged with air circulation. CVT230 clone from C Block at Willoughby Bridge was picked a few days later, on the 18th of February, destemmed and inoculated with larger amounts of the earlier-harvested A Block. Allowed to ferment undisturbed. Pressed at seven days to stainless, with a further addition of the earlier-harvested A Block post-pressing. The wine is exposed to oxygen early to help yeast complete fermentation and for tannin resolution. Once settled, the wine is racked to old puncheon, with only the most aromatic and slinky barrels kept for the Super Juice final blend. Bottled without addition or filtration. \u003cspan class=\"s1\" style=\"font-family: -apple-system, BlinkMacSystemFont, 'Segoe UI', Roboto, Oxygen, Ubuntu, Cantarell, 'Open Sans', 'Helvetica Neue', sans-serif;\"\u003e–\u003c\/span\u003e\u003cspan class=\"s1\" style=\"font-family: -apple-system, BlinkMacSystemFont, 'Segoe UI', Roboto, Oxygen, Ubuntu, Cantarell, 'Open Sans', 'Helvetica Neue', sans-serif;\"\u003e Pat Underwood, Winemaker\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Little Reddie","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":47279966748925,"sku":"25727","price":41.0,"currency_code":"AUD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0026\/6754\/4640\/files\/Winona-Wine-Little-Reddie-2025-Nebbiolo-Super-Juice-Little-Reddie-Wine.png?v=1778486327"},{"product_id":"lucy-m-2025-gamay","title":"Lucy M - 2025 Gamay","description":"\u003cstyle type=\"text\/css\"\u003e\u003c!--\ntd {border: 1px solid #cccccc;}br {mso-data-placement:same-cell;}\n--\u003e\u003c\/style\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe merry-go-round arrives, get on and hold on tight as the wild ride of soif, swill, laughing, thrill, shrill, laughing, spinning out of control to the smooth jazz of pure pink juice.
