Clos de la Roilette is a longtime Flatiron-favorite Fleurie, and the Cuvee Tardive (labeled here Vendange Tardive) is its serious bottling. Fernand Coudert bought the run-down estate in 1967; his son Alain has made the wine since the 1980s. The clos sits on an unusual band of clay-rich soil that gives a wine closer to Moulin-a-Vent than typical granite Fleurie. The Tardive comes from the oldest vines, around 80 years old, and the name signals a wine meant to be drunk later, not late-harvested fruit. The 2014, a fresh and elegant vintage, is now in a lovely mature window.

"Ruby-red. Intense aromas of ripe red berries, smoky minerals and fresh flowers, with a spicy element emerging slowly. Juicy and expansive, offering concentrated yet lithe raspberry and boysenberry flavors and a touch of candied lavender. Finishes sappy, gently sweet and very long, with smooth tannins arriving late and lending shape and grip." —Josh Raynolds

More about Clos de la Roilette (Coudert)

Alain Coudert inherited a poorly maintained Fleurie vineyard in 1967 and spent five decades proving it could rival Moulin-à-Vent. His vines border Moulin-à-Vent and taste like it—richer, more structured, with clay and mineral manganese rather than pure granite. The Cuvée Tardive is built for aging, but even the regular Fleurie ages beautifully. A generational project completed and handed down.

Tasting Profile

A structured, deep cru Beaujolais closer to Moulin-a-Vent than light Fleurie. Now mature and savory, with red fruit softening into earth and spice.
