Charly Thevenet
Grain & Granit Régnié Gamay
Beautifully balanced wines with loads of raspberry, BlackBerry and violet on the nose, crisp acidity and ripe tannins in the mouth. Forest floor and game notes on a long finish. This wine shows what Cru Beaujolais is all about - five years old and it still has plenty of life for another three or four.

Strikes that balance of being extremely giving, yet light bodied. This one also has some wild aromatics without ever getting too "Gamay-ey", if that makes sense...
