Supple, fruity reds with a clear ruby colour, lightly marked tannins and a charming palate, showing signature aromas of cherry, raspberry, gentle spices and floral notes. Early, airy profile to drink young. Today marginal but preserved for its genetic value in Württemberg, famous for giving rise to Dornfelder (with Heroldrebe). German black variety obtained in 1931 at Weinsberg, a cross of Frühburgunder × Trollinger.

The wine region of Juliénas
Northernmost Beaujolais cru, one of the most structured of the ten. Gamay signature as sole grape: perfumed, sturdy reds with signature notes of black cherry, raspberry, flowers (peony, violet), sweet spices and a granitic mineral touch, firm tannins and silky mouth — denser than Fleurie or Brouilly, immediate pleasure to 5-10 year ageing on top cuvées. Granitic, schist and clay soils across 4 communes (~537 ha).
The wine region of Beaujolais
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: Astringency
Chemical stimulation that tightens the mucous membranes of the mouth and causes a sensation of harshness, which is characteristic of the presence of tannins. With time, the tannins lose their harshness and become softer.
