Beaujolais-Villages, 2023

Light, crunchy red with rose and cherry - the only wine one former builder makes, from his family's twelve hectares of golden limestone in southern Beaujolais.

Thibault Charnay left a construction business to take over his family's vines around Anse in southern Beaujolais, and this is the only wine he makes. Organic Gamay from golden limestone, fermented as whole bunches so it stays light and low in grip. Rose petal and juicy cherry, a little pepper and wild herbs, and a light, crunchy feel.
