Beaujolais-Villages 2007

Site : The area of production covers 39 villages in the Northern part of the Beaujolais region. Among all those villages are the famous 10 "Crus" of the Beaujolais : Moulin à Vent, Chiroubles, Régnié, Chenas, Saint Amour, Fleurie, Morgon, Brouilly, Côte de Brouilly et Julienas.

The Vintage 2007 : The weather at the start of summer was quite demanding. It became fine again from the end of August with much sun and a north wind, which aided concentration of flavours. The harvest commenced in mid-September in perfect conditions under an Indian summer. Careful selection of grapes in the vineyard and winery have produced crunchy red wines with very pure aromas.

Tasting : Bright ruby colour with purple nuances. Intense aromas of fresh red berries (red currant) mixed with violet and spices Lively, generous and supple. Refreshing aftertaste.

Food pairing : Cooked pork meat "Charcuterie", regional meals and mild cheeses.
