Chateau de Corcelles - Fleurie 2020
Beaujolais-Fleurie AOP It was in the 15th century that Antoine de Laye began the reconstruction of the Château de Corcelles on the foundations of an old stronghold built in the Carolingian period.

It is today, within a few kilometers, the border between the departments of Saône et Loire and Rhône. From 1984, the Richard family took over the prestigious domain. Manual harvest.
