Beaujolais Fine Wine

To the south of Bourgogne lies Beaujolais, a region famed for its production of light, vibrant and fruity reds. Its vineyards are almost entirely planted with Gamay - the grape from which Beaujolais' signature style is derived - making this one of the few winemaking regions in the world to place such focus on a single grape variety. Refreshing acidity, fruit-driven flavours and low tannins are the distinguishing characteristics of the region - a vast separation from the heavy, tannic styles from surrounding regions. It's also home to the now-famed Beaujolais Nouveau, an early-release style bottled a mere 6-8 weeks after harvest, with no barrel ageing at all - a stylistic tradition that has propelled Beaujolais into public awareness and popularity.
