Product Information

From the picturesque rolling hillsides northwest of Lyon, and made exclusively from Gamay grapes, Beaujolais is often relatively light-bodied with lots of youthful fruit and refreshingly high acidity.

Bright and lively red, this youthful, juicy Beaujolais has plenty of lifted red fruit. Crushed red berries and black pepper on the palate with floral notes and a dusting of allspice.

Please drink responsibly: The UK Chief Medical Officers recommend adults do not regularly drink more than 14 units per week
