BEAUJOLAIS SELECTION PACK

Six Wines from five brilliant producers from one of the most exciting natural wine regions in the world (and where the movement started.)

Lillian Bauchet, Plan B 2020 

Lilian's flagship white is a delicious blend of Souvignier Gris & Muscaris, pressed direct and aged in fibreglass. It has a lovely lush texture, yes is fresh and full of crisp fruit. One of the best wines made from hybrid grapes we have tried. 

Lillian Bauchet,  Dazibao 2022

This energetic red is a blend of 85% Gamay de Beaujolais with a mix of hybrid grapes: hybrids Florental, Chambourcin, two old hybrids of gamay, Leon Millot and Maréchal Foch. Brimming with wild dark fruit, it has a little co2 on opening, the red berries of the gamay are complemented by the rustic brightness of the hybrid grapes. Perfect with a cassoulet!

Robin Goutallier, 36 Fois Le Mise 2022

From Robin’s highest parcel, above the 60% De Velours, at 500m altitude on granite soils, that he has recently acquired. He gave the grapes a gentle 10 day maceration whole bunch before pressing into fibreglass.

Maud Rochette, Les Chiens Romantiques 2022

100% Gamay. Maude gave the grapes ten days of maceration, before ageing in fibreglass for ten months. It's supple, silky, with lovely aromatics and very pretty fruit, a really delicate expression of southern Beaujolais. No additions fining of filtering.

Nicolas Pavie, Fatum 2021

The first vintage for a tiny new plot he took over in 2021, a vintage that was wet and cool. He applied his usual approach, 3 and a half week infusion of the grapes and aged this juice in tank. As with many in the region has some reduction on opening, but with a little air unfurls into a very pretty wine, full of dark red fruit. 

Raphael & Emelie - Lapins 2021 (litre)

100% Gamay, from Theize, the soils littered with the Pierres Dorées (yellow stones) of the region. This is dense and mineral, benefiting from extra time in barrel, a silky savoury Beaujolais, more Rhone than Bojo.
