Clos de la Roilette is an iconic Beaujolais and it has a rabid following. It is one of the few wines of the region that is allocated. I would typically not send an email about it because we get our small allocation and those in the know snap it up when they see it. There's usually just not enough to go around to do an email offer.
We got our allotment of Roilette last year, but out of the blue I was notified that more was available this week... more of the stupendous 2019 vintage! To be totally transparent, I have not yet tried this vintage. I bought some last year but I have not yet broached a bottle. I have the utmost confidence that it will be delicious today, and worth saving for 5 to 10 years. Since we got a bit more, I'll surely be cracking one open very soon. If you want to know what the best of Beaujolais is all about, I suggest you act quickly.
