The wine region of Beaujolais Nouveau
Emblematic Beaujolais style, a primeur wine released on the 3rd Thursday of November since 1985. Gamay noir made by short carbonic maceration: very fruity, quaffable reds with explosive signature notes of ripe banana, English boiled sweets, strawberry, raspberry and fresh grape, light tannins and an airy palate - to be drunk cool, young, straight from the vat. A festive global phenomenon launched by Georges Duboeuf, a convivial French symbol. With charcuterie or among friends.
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.
The word of the wine: Anthocyanins
Phenolic compounds present in the skin of grapes that give colour to red wines during maceration.
