Clos de Mez, 'La Dot'

 Marie-Élodie Zighera-Confuron, Winemaker

La Dot refers to the dowry that Marie-Élodie’s grandmother received, and this wine pays homage to her. From a plot of 50-year-old vines located in the southern sector of Fleurie, close to the border of Morgon, it is produced from gnarled old goblet pruned vines grown on decomposed sandy pink granite and made from very low yields. 40 to 50% of this wine is matured in barrels for 9 months, leading to a dense, somewhat balsamic style of Fleurie with dark fruit notes and spicy complexity.
