The wine region of Régnié
Youngest of the ten Beaujolais crus (AOC 1988), ~400 ha on the commune of Régnié-Durette, pink granitic sandy-pebbly arenas. Single Gamay vinified by semi-carbonic maceration. Signature fruity, silky reds with notes of redcurrant, raspberry, red cherry, wild strawberry, violet, peony and spice, fine tannins and airy palate — floral finesse, one of the most accessible crus. Drink young and fresh with poultry or charcuterie.
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: Thinning
Also known as green harvesting, the practice of removing excess bunches of grapes from certain vines, usually in July, but sometimes later. This is often necessary, but not always a good thing, as the remaining bunches often gain weight.
