Serve slightly cool with roast chicken with herbed butter, seared duck breast or a simple charcuterie board laden with nuts and pickles, best enjoyed at a relaxed weeknight dinner or summer picnic. This Domaine Chermette Fleurie Poncié 2023 Beaujolais expression is a persuasive buy for those who want a perfumed, cru‑classed Gamay with both lift and savoury depth rather than simple fruit.

Domaine Chermette Fleurie Poncié 2023 from Beaujolais opens with a lifted, floral intensity drawn from the granitic slopes of Fleurie, shaped by the Chermette family with a focus on purity and finesse. This wine is an excellent choice for lovers of aromatic, medium‑bodied reds that balance juicy wild strawberry with mineral‑driven earth and fine structure.

On the nose there is red cherry, wild strawberry and rose petal layered with a hint of white pepper and damp forest floor, framed by bright acidity and fine‑grained tannins. The palate is light‑medium yet layered, with a cool, stony finish that keeps you coming back to the glass throughout the meal.
