91-92 Pts David Schildknecht - Robert Parker's Wine Advocate

"Reflecting a miniscule volume due to hail, the 2009 Chenas Q Domaine Piron & Lameloise (formerly labeled 'Quartz,' and part of a joint venture with the Lameloise family) displays a nose unusually mingling ripe blackberry and blueberry with suggestions of roasted eggplant. A saline savor I associate with many quartzite-rich sites threads its way through the wine's richly-fruited yet finely tannin-suffused and stimulatingly bright palate. A bittersweet low tone again reminiscent of roasted eggplant adds to the wineâs saliva-inducing, palate-staining length. This Chenas - raised one-third in older barrel, but tasted assembled - should be another candidate of its vintage for 4-6 years of fascinating bottle evolution." 91-92 points - David Schildknecht - Wine Advocate

"Granite soil with strata of quartz gives this wine its intense texture, very structured and tight. It's at a young stage, the red currant and dark cherry fruits integrating with the firm character of the wine. Keep for two years. -R.V." 91 points Wine Enthusiast

WINE:
"CHENAS is full of finesse and elegance. The first impression on the nose is floral with distinct peonie and lilac notes against a mineral background because of the influence of the Quartz in the soil, the mouth is complex, round and very quickly mineral, almost salted and smoked. In January 2011, this Chenas won first place in a small competition organized by the regional sommelier association." -Importer

VINIFICATION:
"The vineyard is 8.5 hectares and a lutte raisonnee is used for vineyard management. The grapes were hand harvested in the middle of September. About 80% of the grapes were destemmed and maceration lasted over a period of 18 days in concrete tanks. After malolactic fermentation, 30% of the wine is aged for 10 months in mostly neutral barrels with just 2% being two years old." -Importer

WINERY:
"Managed by Dominique Piron, the 14th generation winemaker in the family, and his wife Kristine Mary. Domaine Piron is a wine company which manages and vinifies, through different wine estates, and 60 hectares of 50-years-old vines. Domaine Piron specializes in the Beaujolais appellation of Morgon and its climates and also produces the appellations of Beaujolais, Beaujolais-Villages, Regnie, Brouilly, Moulin-a-Vent, Fleurie, Chenas, Beaujolais and Bourgogne Blanc. Domaine Piron is dedicated to cultivating their vines with a deep respect for nature and the expression of the soils." -Importer
