Tasting Notes
Made from 100% Gamay grapes - which have thinner skins than most grapes and thus cause a lower tannin level - Beaujolais Nouveau is the most popular ‘vin de primeur’ that is fermented for just a few weeks and then officially released for sale. By law, Beaujolais grapes must be harvested by hand and grown on individual, free standing vines. Beaujolais Nouveau is then harvested, produced, bottled and shipped within two months. It owes its easy drinkability to a winemaking process called carbonic maceration, or whole-berry fermentation. This technique preserves the fresh and fruity quality of the wine. Beaujolais Nouveau is known internationally as the wine of friendship and hospitality.
