Wine description | Light in colour, verging on ruby. Very fine with notes of red berries and cherry. Straightforward attack, the oak is discrete yet adds a hint of chocolate and spice. The palate opens up to favours of black fruit and violets. Soft, pleasing structure with beautiful overall finess. |
Beaujolais is the most southern wine growing region in Burgundy, though it is substantially different from rest of Burgundy, both in climate and in the wine it produces, it is often thought of as its own appellation.
Beaujolais produces light, dry red wines made from Gamay. Perhaps what the region is best known for is Beaujolais Nouveau, a fresh and fruity red wine made for immediate consumption....
