Gamay is a thin, delicate purple-black skinned grape which is cylindrical and compact, surrounded by flat, fairly even-edged leaves.

Although granite soils seem to be its soil of choice, the variety is good at adapting. Half of the 30,000 hectares of Gamay planted worldwide are in the Beaujolais region of France, where it covers 98% of the areas that produce Beaujolais wine.

The hilly Beaujolais vineyards stretch out from north to south over 55km, bordered to the west by the Massif Central, and to the east by the Saone river.

Beaujolais vineyards are emblematic in the French national landscape, but are still teeming with secrets to be unearthed. The region has a constent sense of welcome and sharing. Sculpted over centuries it is personified by its 12 AOCs.

Situated in the beautiful Pierres Dorées region of Beaujolais, the wines are made by third generation winemaking siblings Julien and Bérengère. Each cuveé shines just like the golden stones that give the area it's name.

Certified organic, the domain focusses on four principles: family, work, respect and love of the land. The best wine is not necessarily the most expensive but the one that we share.
