Famile Dutraive is a project that was born in 2016 when frost and hail combined to destroy 90% of Jean-Louis' crop. Faced with the dilemma that all three of his children plan on joining him on the farm, Jean-Louis decided to start Famile Dutraive, a nandeacute;gociant project that purchases certified organic fruit around Beaujolais as a buffer in years with extreme weather. St-Amour, located in the far north of Beaujolais, has more limestone in the soil, lending the wines lift and freshness.

Medium ruby, subtle spritz; medium intensity aromas of cranberry, red currant, tart red cherry, musty cellar; dry, medium plus acid, medium minus tannins, medium plus alcohol, medium minus body, subtle spritz, medium intensity flavors of cranberry, red currant, red cherry, raspberry, musty; medium finish, not sure if flawed or just a natural wine

Grippy, vegetal Cru Beaujolais, could use some time in bottle to smooth out the edges.
