The wine region of Chiroubles
Highest cru of Beaujolais (270-600 m), ~278 ha of Gamay on exclusively granitic soils. Fine and fragrant signature reds with hallmark notes of red cherry, wild strawberry, raspberry, peony, violet, rose petal and a hint of spice, silky tannins and thirst-quenching palate — nicknamed "the tenderest of crus", gourmand and friendly, drink young with charcuterie. Airy floral style. Altitude brings freshness and finesse.
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.

Some lively Chardonnay. 12,000 ha south of Burgundy, granitic soils.
