Fleurie is the best known village in the Beaujolais region, and Chateau de Fleurie is arguably the best known wine Chateau, lying at the very heart of the village. Now under the control of Beaujolais experts Loron et Fils, the wines produced here continue to satisfy the thirst of those who look forward to the release of Beaujolais wines year after year. The Château has 32 acres of vineyards and employs traditional winemaking techniques throughout its range. After fermentation, the wines are stored in large oak foudres that minimise oak influence and therefor help to produce the fresh clean floral style for which the Chateau is widely known.
