Having lived in Lyon for \u003c\/span\u003e\u003cspan data-mce-fragment=\"1\"\u003esome time, Nayrand had been drinking a ton of natural wine; in 2015, \u003c\/span\u003e\u003cspan data-mce-fragment=\"1\"\u003ean internship with Julien Guillot at Clos des Vignes du Mayne \u003c\/span\u003e\u003cspan data-mce-fragment=\"1\"\u003econfirmed his path of organic farming and natural winemaking for his \u003c\/span\u003e\u003cspan data-mce-fragment=\"1\"\u003eown domaine. Later in the year, Nayrand started out with 3.5 hectares \u003c\/span\u003e\u003cspan data-mce-fragment=\"1\"\u003eof vines and a garage below his home in the southern village of \u003c\/span\u003e\u003cspan data-mce-fragment=\"1\"\u003eMillery to produce his own Coteaux du Lyonnais. Nayrand’s petite,\u003c\/span\u003e\u003cbr data-mce-fragment=\"1\"\u003e\u003cspan data-mce-fragment=\"1\"\u003egaragiste domaine has been certified organic since that beginning \u003c\/span\u003e\u003cspan data-mce-fragment=\"1\"\u003eyear, and now he's big into biodynamics.\u003c\/span\u003e\u003cbr data-mce-fragment=\"1\"\u003e\u003cbr data-mce-fragment=\"1\"\u003e\u003cspan data-mce-fragment=\"1\"\u003eOf his work, Baptiste gives us a tidy summary:  \"The vineyards are \u003c\/span\u003e\u003cspan data-mce-fragment=\"1\"\u003emaintained without any chemical products, pesticides, or synthetic \u003c\/span\u003e\u003cspan data-mce-fragment=\"1\"\u003efertilizer. Parallel infusions of horsetail, nettle, comfrey, and \u003c\/span\u003e\u003cspan data-mce-fragment=\"1\"\u003ewillow are used to reinforce and structure the vines during their \u003c\/span\u003e\u003cspan data-mce-fragment=\"1\"\u003evegetative period, and to reduce to a strict minimum the use of copper\u003c\/span\u003e\u003cbr data-mce-fragment=\"1\"\u003e\u003cspan data-mce-fragment=\"1\"\u003eand sulfur. [In my use of] biodynamic methods, I have the constant \u003c\/span\u003e\u003cspan data-mce-fragment=\"1\"\u003eobjective to recreate the harmony between elements: mineral, \u003c\/span\u003e\u003cspan data-mce-fragment=\"1\"\u003evegetable, human, and cosmos. Vinifications are done exclusively with \u003c\/span\u003e\u003cspan data-mce-fragment=\"1\"\u003enative yeast, without sulfur dioxide, and without any modern \u003c\/span\u003e\u003cspan data-mce-fragment=\"1\"\u003eoenological products. All vinification takes place without the use of \u003c\/span\u003e\u003cspan data-mce-fragment=\"1\"\u003etemperature control (neither heating or cooling), as the objective is \u003c\/span\u003e\u003cspan data-mce-fragment=\"1\"\u003eto infuse the grapes rather than to extract them. As a result, there \u003c\/span\u003e\u003cspan data-mce-fragment=\"1\"\u003eare very few punchdowns or pumpovers executed, for the sake of \u003c\/span\u003e\u003cspan data-mce-fragment=\"1\"\u003erespecting the integrity of the grapes as long as possible, as well as \u003c\/span\u003e\u003cspan data-mce-fragment=\"1\"\u003eto obtain maximum finesse and complexity.

But there’s connective \u003c\/span\u003e\u003cspan data-mce-fragment=\"1\"\u003etissue between the two famous regions, an area that, especially \u003c\/span\u003e\u003cspan data-mce-fragment=\"1\"\u003epre-phylloxera, once flourished with vineyards: the Coteaux du \u003c\/span\u003e\u003cspan data-mce-fragment=\"1\"\u003eLyonnais.  Having only gained appellation status in 1984, the region \u003c\/span\u003e\u003cspan data-mce-fragment=\"1\"\u003ehas been obscured for some century or more, even though it was heavily \u003c\/span\u003e\u003cspan data-mce-fragment=\"1\"\u003eplanted to Gamay after phylloxera, then separated from Beaujolais by \u003c\/span\u003e\u003cspan data-mce-fragment=\"1\"\u003eedict in 1938. What this means is that nearly 90 years ago, people in \u003c\/span\u003e\u003cspan data-mce-fragment=\"1\"\u003ethe Lyonnais were seeing and understanding that this region has\u003c\/span\u003e\u003cbr data-mce-fragment=\"1\"\u003e\u003cspan data-mce-fragment=\"1\"\u003esomething distinctive to offer, wines that build a bridge between the \u003c\/span\u003e\u003cspan data-mce-fragment=\"1\"\u003estructure of the southern Cru Beaujolais and the wild intensity of the \u003c\/span\u003e\u003cspan data-mce-fragment=\"1\"\u003enorthern Rhône.  His wines also have a similar excitement and energy \u003c\/span\u003e\u003cspan data-mce-fragment=\"1\"\u003efound in the most legendary natural wine producers in Beaujolais and \u003c\/span\u003e\u003cspan data-mce-fragment=\"1\"\u003ethe northern Rhône.\u003c\/span\u003e\u003cbr data-mce-fragment=\"1\"\u003e\u003cbr data-mce-fragment=\"1\"\u003e\u003cspan data-mce-fragment=\"1\"\u003e'Toit du Monde' comes from old vines planted in 1929 up in the hills \u003c\/span\u003e\u003cspan data-mce-fragment=\"1\"\u003eabove the city of Lyon, planted on a vein of blue diorite similar to \u003c\/span\u003e\u003cspan data-mce-fragment=\"1\"\u003ethat found on the Côte de Brouilly.   It has a serious and structured \u003c\/span\u003e\u003cspan data-mce-fragment=\"1\"\u003ebackbone, like the best Brouilly wines, but also has a decidedly \u003c\/span\u003e\u003cspan data-mce-fragment=\"1\"\u003ejuicy, playful side.  Dripping with inky, purple fruit, it reads, on \u003c\/span\u003e\u003cspan data-mce-fragment=\"1\"\u003efirst sip, like delicious natty Welch's grape juice for adults, but \u003c\/span\u003e\u003cspan data-mce-fragment=\"1\"\u003ewith air and time the nuances emerge - some wet stone, some earthy \u003c\/span\u003e\u003cspan data-mce-fragment=\"1\"\u003esoil, a kiss of spice.  A happy, joyful wine that any Gamay lover \u003c\/span\u003e\u003cspan data-mce-fragment=\"1\"\u003eshould experience.\u003c\/span\u003e\u003cbr data-mce-fragment=\"1\"\u003e\u003cbr data-mce-fragment=\"1\"\u003e\u003cspan data-mce-fragment=\"1\"\u003eSERVE SLIGHTLY CHILLED\u003c\/span\u003e","brand":"Rock Juice","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":54242838348059,"sku":"nen1792016952868","price":22.44,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/1029\/3923\/0491\/files\/2020-domaine-baptiste-nayrand-coteau-du-lyonnais-toit-du-monde_1.jpg?v=1792016958","url":"https:\/\/closetrodcladwear.shop\/products\/2020-domaine-baptiste-nayrand-coteau-du-lyonnais-toit-du-monde","provider":"My Store","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
