Régnié, Antoine Sunier 2024
Red Wine from France - Beaujolais
Antoine Sunier is the younger brother of Julien Sunier, and in the last ten years has followed in his brother's footsteps and established himself as one of Beaujolais's leading growers. Having been inspired by visits to Julien, Antoine managed to buy a few hectares of vines in Régnié in 2014 and now farms 5.5 hectares in this cru and a further 1.2 hectares in Morgon, all organically. His Régnié comes from old vines on granitic soils and is a beautifully pure, transparent expression of gamay on granite. With jewel-bright red cherry fruit and spicy notes of fennel, this has fine chalk-powder tannins, effortlessly integrated after 10 months' élevage in old barrels. If you are not particularly familiar with this most recent of Beaujolais's crus (it graduated to cru status in 1988 but still flies under the radar), Antoine Sunier's work here illustrates the high potential of the village.
