Beaujolais Grandes Coasses 2024

The Beaujolais Grandes Coasses is produced in the Beaujolais region of France, known for its distinctive Gamay-based wines. The vineyard is located in the southern part of Burgundy, characterized by granitic soils that contribute to the wine’s unique profile.

This wine is made exclusively from the Gamay grape variety, which is the traditional grape of the Beaujolais appellation.

The Beaujolais Grandes Coasses is crafted using traditional winemaking techniques that emphasize gentle extraction to preserve the grape’s fresh fruit character. The fermentation is typically carried out in stainless steel tanks with temperature control to maintain aromatic intensity. Aging is done in neutral vessels to highlight the purity of the fruit and terroir expression without heavy oak influence.

• Appearance: Bright ruby red color with youthful vibrancy.
• Aroma: Intense aromas of red berries such as cherry and raspberry, complemented by floral hints and subtle earthy undertones.
• Palate: Light to medium-bodied with lively acidity, smooth tannins, and a fresh, fruity finish that is both elegant and approachable.

• Charcuterie and cured meats
• Roasted poultry such as chicken or duck
• Light pasta dishes with tomato-based sauces
• Soft cheeses like Brie or Camembert
• Grilled vegetables and mild Mediterranean cuisine
