BEAUJOLAIS, FRAGRANCE AND FRUITINESS

Beyond the well-celebrated and much publicised release of the Beaujolais wine on the 3rd Thursday of November, the true essence of the Beaujolais village and the aromas of the 10 Grand Crus should not be forgotten.

In fact it is in this beautiful region of Beaujolais that you will find famous wines like Brouilly, Côtes de Brouilly, Moulin-à-Vent, Fleurie, Morgon, Chiroubles, Chénas, Régnier, Juliénas, Saint-Amour…

In order to capture the real spirit of this wine making community it is worth visiting the wine caverns, taking a trip to the golden stone villages or go for a walk in the vineyards.
