The wine region of Beaujolais-Villages

Quality, gourmet Beaujolais of Gamay. Fruity, crunchy reds with signature notes of cherry, raspberry, crushed strawberry and flowers (peony, violet), supple tannins and a thirst-quenching palate. Intermediate quality between generic Beaujolais and the 10 Crus, across 38 communes of the vineyard's northern hillsides. A few minority rosés and Chardonnay whites.

Kingdom of Gamay (98% of the vineyard): fruity, accessible reds with signature notes of cherry, raspberry, banana (carbonic maceration), violet and sweet spices, supple tannins and juicy acidity. From festive Beaujolais Nouveau (3rd Thursday of November) to the 10 more structured, age-worthy Crus: deep earthy Morgon, sturdy Moulin-à-Vent, floral Fleurie, crunchy Brouilly. Some lively Chardonnay. 12,000 ha south of Burgundy, granitic soils.

The word of the wine: Fermentation
