A complex bouquet of summer black fruits on the nose. The taste of soft spice, liquorice and honey blend together to make the perfect wine. Harvest is done by hand and the granite soil of the Beaujolais had a great influence on this wine. A perfect Easter treat to serve with a spring lamb.

Pairing tips: Spring lamb, cheese and charcuterie
Serving temperature: 10 ºC (Best served cool)

The appellation Beaujolais includes 72 villages and 10 appellations (or Beaujolais Crus). Over mainly granite terrain, the Beaujolais Crus form a meandering path. From south to north, Brouilly is followed by Côte de Brouilly, Régnié, Morgon, Chiroubles, Fleurie, Moulin-à-Vent, Chénas, Juliénas and Saint-Amour.

The region has ideal growing conditions. It receives lots of sunshine and has granite-based soils that lend excellent structure to the wines. The Gamay grape is used to make all Beaujolais wines with the exception of white Beaujolais, or Beaujolais blanc, which is made of Chardonnay grapes.

Fleurie is located in the north of Beaujolais and covers an unbroken area of three square miles. The soil there is almost entirely made up of pinkish granite that is unique to this part of Beaujolais. This gives wines their elegant and fruity style.
