Beaujolais is not just a wine for summer! Here, grapes from 50-year-old vines on granite (as the name suggests) are vinified by the Boisset-owned négociant house of Mommessin and left unoaked, allowing the dense, juicy raspberry and softly spiced red cherry flavours to shine, along with velvety fruit tannins and fresh acidity.
