🌿🍷 Croix Pennet 2022 – Clos Bateau | Beaujolais with character

A wild Gamay from granite soils

Clos Bateau once again surprises with Croix Pennet 2022, a vibrant and natural Gamay from a unique vineyard on the border between Lantignié and Régnié. This single-parcel wine reflects both the ruggedness of the terroir and the playful spirit of its makers: a wine that bursts with energy and personality.

🍒 Tasting notes

In the glass, Croix Pennet shows itself as wild, lively and surprisingly deep.

Nose: ripe cherries and blackberries, followed by hints of vanilla and dark chocolate after some air.
Palate: juicy and energetic, with a velvety texture and a fine tension between fresh fruit and deeper layers.
Finish: smooth, refined, with a slightly spicy, mysterious signature unique to this vineyard.

A Gamay with sensational expression – exciting yet utterly approachable.

🌱 Terroir & Vinification

📍 Location: 0.5 ha parcel on the border of Lantignié and Régnié, south-facing.
⛰️ Soil: full of large granite rocks, giving mineral tension and lively energy.
🍇 Grapes: 100% Gamay, farmed naturally.
🍷 Vinification: 11 days semi-carbonic maceration. Then 70% aged for 8 months in used Burgundy barrels and 30% in stainless steel.
🔢 Production: only 2340 bottles – a true micro-cuvée.

🍽️ Wine & Food

Pairs beautifully with dishes that balance freshness and depth:

🍝 Pappardelle with duck ragù
🍄 Mushroom risotto with truffle
🧀 French charcuterie and semi-hard cheeses
🍗 Grilled chicken with Provençal herbs

🏡 About Clos Bateau

Clos Bateau is a young domaine where the vineyards literally start in the back garden – a rare luxury in Beaujolais. Everything happens on-site: from vineyard care to cellar ageing. The Croix Pennet parcel is special, lying right on the line between two appellations, with a terroir that gives this wine its unique, hard-to-define but always recognizable signature every year.
