<p>Juicy, super ripe and softly perfumed on the nose, this is full of the flavours of summer fruit compote. Ripe tannins and vibrant acidity present an easy drinking wine with a soft, approachable finish.</p><p>Juicy, fresh and approachable – just what you want from Beaujolais Villages. Samantha Bailey of Boutinot’s French Winemaking team works tirelessly to select this wine which is made from whole bunch Gamay grapes using the traditional carbonic maceration technique.</p><p>Gamay vines are grown on the slopes of the rolling Beaujolais hills. Whole bunch Gamay is fermented using traditional carbonic maceration techniques. Short cuvaison is used in order to keep the up front juicy fruit characters.</p><p>Try with a charcuterie platter, BBQ sausages or even with a hearty salad (salads beaujolaise = poached egg and fried bacon strips on green salad …and don’t forget the garlic!). Excellent wine for a summer picnic or alfresco dining.</p>
