Tasting Notes and Food Pairing Suggestions

  • Stout-braised lamb shoulder over creamy polenta with Parmigiano Reggiano and fresh thyme
  • Farro and wild mushroom soup
  • Indian cauliflower, potato, and chickpea stew with turmeric, ginger, and cardamom over basmati rice

This elegant, concentrated, and exotic Cru Beaujolais made from old vines Gamay features meaty, wild yeast aromas and crushed cranberries, spices, and stylish dark cherry fruit in the mouth. Produced naturally without the addition of sulphur, this is super fresh, super sexy wine and is the very reason why I LOVE Cru Beaujolais - and you should too!
