Today, almost half of the 30,000 hectares of Gamay planted worldwide are located in Beaujolais.
As a decidedly modern grape variety, appreciated for its freshness and fruitiness, Gamay is the key grape of Beaujolais and makes up 94% of its vineyards. From their flagship grape variety, the 12 Beaujolais appellations offer young, light red wines characterized by freshness and drinkability. But not only! They also offer wines with significant aging potential, often overlooked.

Led by Olivier Borneuf (La Tulipe Rouge), join us for a masterclass that will shatter preconceived notions.
From immediate freshness to age-worthy aging potential, come and taste six Beaujolais, Beaujolais Villages, and Crus, from both recent and older vintages. You'll leave convinced that Beaujolais offers the wines of today AND tomorrow.
