The Beaujolais Cru Grand Tour

Embark on a captivating journey through the heart of Beaujolais with our meticulously curated Beaujolais Cru Grand Tour mixed case. This exceptional collection features six distinct bottles, each representing a different, renowned Beaujolais Cru, showcasing the incredible versatility and depth of the Gamay grape. Perfect for connoisseurs, curious adventurers, or anyone eager to discover why Beaujolais is celebrated far beyond its simple "Nouveau" reputation. This case reveals the elegance, structure, and sheer drinkability that define the region's finest wines.

What's Inside Your Grand Tour (1 Bottle Each)
1. Château des Tours Brouilly Les Tours

The Cru: Brouilly is the largest and most southerly Cru, known for its friendly, approachable style.

The Wine: Offers bright, juicy red fruit flavours with a soft texture, making it wonderfully easy-drinking and fresh. A perfect introduction.

2. Domaine Lafarge-Vial Chiroubles

The Cru: Chiroubles is the highest-altitude Cru, producing wines of remarkable purity and perfume.

The Wine: Elegant and aromatic, with delicate floral notes and vibrant red berry fruit. Displays a refined, ethereal quality.

3. Domaine Chignard Fleurie Les Moriers

The Cru: Fleurie, the "Queen of Beaujolais," is celebrated for its exquisite floral aromas and silky texture.

The Wine: A beautifully perfumed wine, showcasing violets and roses alongside succulent red cherry fruit. Feminine, graceful, and utterly charming.

4. Château des Capitans Juliénas

The Cru: Juliénas typically produces robust, full-bodied wines with a good structure and a hint of spice.

The Wine: Delivers rich, dark fruit flavours complemented by savory spice and a firm backbone, offering a more serious expression of Gamay.

5. Jean-Marc Burgaud Morgon Côte du Py

The Cru: Morgon, particularly from the Côte du Py, is one of the most powerful and age-worthy Crus, often compared to Pinot Noir from Burgundy.

The Wine: Concentrated and earthy, with deep cherry fruit, a mineral core, and a 'gout de terroir' (taste of the soil). Structured for enjoyment now or cellaring.

6. Château des Jacques Moulin-à-Vent Clos de Rochegrès

The Cru: Moulin-à-Vent is famously known as the "King of Beaujolais," producing the most structured, tannic, and long-lived wines.

The Wine: Intense and complex, with notes of dark berries, spice, and often developing truffle or forest floor characteristics with age. A powerful and contemplative wine.

Each bottle in this collection is crafted from 100% Gamay Noir, demonstrating how this versatile grape expresses the unique geology and microclimates of each Cru. From the granite soils of Morgon to the pink granite of Fleurie, you'll taste the terroir.
