Discover the grape variety: Gamay de Chaudenay
Unlike its dyer congeners, Gamay de Chaudenay is said to have "white juice". It is a cross between white gouais and pinot noir that gave birth to this grape variety from the north of Lyon, and its alternative names are Olivette Beaujolaise, Gamay de Caudoz and Gamay d'Arcenant. It is a variety that buds early in the year and is susceptible to wood diseases and excoriosis. Its three-lobed, finely serrated leaves are almost round and hairless. The youngest leaves are slightly shiny and yellowish-green in color. The plant matures in the first late season and bears small clusters, winged or not, of cylindrical shape. These clusters contain medium-sized, ovoid, grayish-black berries. The skin provides a dark coloured pulp when ripe. When vinified, the Gamay de Chaudenay gives a wine that is low in tannin but rather colourful. Notes of spice and fruit characterize the warm but short-lived wines that emerge.

The wine region of Burgundy
Bourgogne is the catch-all regional appellation title of the Burgundy wine region in eastern France ("Bourgogne" is the French name for Burgundy). Burgundy has a Complex and comprehensive appellation system; counting Premier Cru and Grand Cru titles, the region has over 700 appellation titles for its wines. Thus, Burgundy wines often come from one Vineyard (or several separate vineyards) without an appellation title specific to the region, Village or even vineyard. A standard Burgundy wine may be made from grapes grown in one or more of Burgundy's 300 communes.
The word of the wine: Film maceration
A technique that consists of leaving the grapes to macerate in the open air at a low temperature before fermentation, thus enhancing the aromatic expression of the wine.
