WINES OF CHARACTER / BEAUJOLAIS

This picturesque area is defined by rolling hills, granite soils, and a temperate climate that nurtures the distinct freshness and vibrancy of its wines. With a focus on natural winemaking methods, Beaujolais wines are loved for their approachability and their ability to age gracefully, especially the prestigious Crus of the region.

Beaujolais, Beaujolais Villages, and 10 Crus such as Morgon, Fleurie, and Moulin-à-Vent, each with unique terroirs contributing to the diversity and character of Beaujolais wines.
