Beaujolais Nouveau

Floral, light on its feet and juicy, this Gamay comes from organically farmed vineyards facing Mont Brouilly. The fruit grows on sandy soils, and the wine ages briefly in concrete tank. It is red, carries twelve percent alcohol and is bottled as Beaujolais Nouveau. The grapes are harvested by hand and ferment naturally; the source parcel sits opposite the western slope of Côte de Brouilly.
