The wine region of Fleurie
Beaujolais cru nicknamed the Queen, on the single commune of Fleurie. Signature Gamay noir: floral, perfumed reds with signature notes of violet, iris, strawberry, raspberry, peony and a peppery touch, silky tannins and an airy palate - the most delicate elegance of the crus. 13 recognised climats including Poncié, La Roilette, La Chapelle des Bois. Granitic soils with sandy gruss and manganese signing the 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. 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: Table wine
Everything that is not VQPRD (European designation for all appellation wines: quality wine produced in a specific region). In principle, the bottom of the ladder. But, as in Italy a decade ago (Vino da Tavola), this category is also a refuge for wines that are out of the ordinary, whose producers refuse to accept certain grape variety or vinification dictates.
