Origines is the home for Grégoire Hoppenot’s Fleurie vineyards that are in conversion to organics. As such, his release includes a wealth of old-vine material from the lieux-dits of Les Roches, La Roilette, Les Garants and Les Moriers with the average age of vines touching 50 years. Hoppenot harvested these vines early in 2020 (25–30 August), which in part accounts for the vibrancy and mineral clarity in the glass. This was raised for six months in concrete following 12 days’ whole-bunch fermentation with ambient yeasts.

Reviews

“Hoppenot’s 2020 Fleurie Origines bursts with aromas of cherries, raspberries, rose petals and spices. Medium to full-bodied, lively and layered, with a fleshy core of fruit, succulent acids and melting tannins, it was already showing well despite having been bottled just a few days before I tasted it.”
93 points, William Kelley, The Wine Advocate
“Transparent garnet. Correct, lovely, approachable cru beaujolais with real grip and no shortage of fruit. Absolute bullseye of a wine with everything in its place. Long too. Definitely underpriced. VGV.”
