For more than four centuries, the Duboeuf family has been producing wine. Now, Georges Duboeuf is a name that needs no introduction, as he is famous for turning Beaujolais Nouveau into an international phenomenon. He cared a great deal about Beaujolais, and his dedication still resonates today – elevating both the Beaujolais region and Gamay grape to near-cult status. Beaujolais Nouveau and the “Flower Label” Villages wines, wines whose labels were hand-drawn by Georges himself, are part of Les Vins Georges Duboeuf. These wines represent enjoying the simple pleasures of life such as gathering with friends and family.
Region: AOC Beaujolais-Villages
Varietal: 100% Gamay
Alcohol: 13%
Viticulture: Harvesting of this wine is done manually, in whole bunches, from vines that are over 50 years old.
Vinification: Maceration lasts from six to eight days and malolactic fermentation is conducted at temperatures between 78.8 F – 82.4°F in stainless steel tanks.
Tasting Notes: This Beaujolais-Village flashes a brilliant garnet color as it displays incomparable fruitiness in the purest expression of Gamay. Intense aromas of black fruits and fragrances of crème de cassis start in the nose and quickly moves down to the
full-bodied, round and vinous palate, that benefits from delicate tannins.
