2023 Nouveau of Gamay
In Stock
True to French tradition of vin de primeur, our Beaujolais Nouveau style wine is crafted with 100% Gamay. Harvested by hand, this wine is fermented through carbonic maceration, which emphasizes fruit flavors without extracting bitter tannins from the grape-skins. This bright, fresh, food-pairing wine is meant to be enjoyed young and in a convivial fashion.
