Domaine Ruet

Beaujolais | Cercié

Domaine Ruet has been making wine at the foot of Mont Brouilly in Cercié-en-Beaujolais since 1926. Now in its fourth generation under Katy and David Duthel, the 20-hectare estate spans south-facing slopes of granite, schist, and shallow stony soils. They produce parcellaire wines from five crus (Brouilly, Côte de Brouilly, Morgon, Chiroubles, and Régnié) using organic practices, each vinified separately with indigenous yeasts to express its distinct terroir. Domaine Ruet holds fast to the tradition of semi-carbonic maceration, indigenous yeasts, and has harvested their vineyards by hand since the beginning.

Domaine Ruet 2017 Morgon “Douby”

"Douby" is the climat above the "Côte de Py" where the soil is less granitic and more decomposed rock with manganese and schist, very similar to "Corcelette." Structured and rich in primary red fruit, this wine is elegant albeit powerful.
