We are Young Rouge Beaujolais Nouveau 2025,
Domaine de la Sorbiere
We Are Young 2025 is a declaration of intent. More than just a Beaujolais Nouveau, it's a vision of young wine, free, without embellishment or artifice. This vintage from Domaine de la Sorbière, in granite Beaujolais, pays homage to the vitality of Gamay, the region's emblematic grape variety, worked here in a completely natural spirit.
The grapes come from granitic soils which give the wine a very clear mineral freshness. The winemaking is as simple as it is sincere: 5-day semi-carbonic maceration, spontaneous fermentations with native yeasts, and an ultra-short aging of 4 days in stainless steel tanks to capture the instant of the fruit. No superfluous oenological intervention, no exogenous yeasts or chemical inputs: here, everything is natural, alive, and respectful of both the grape and its terroir.
The color is a very light red, grenadine-colored, almost translucent, evoking fermented fruit juice. The nose immediately charms with its notes of citrus, fresh cherry, and white flowers, a fine and spring-like aromatic palette. On the palate, the crunchiness of the fruit dominates, with a fluid, fresh, almost thirst-quenching texture, without lacking structure. The moderate alcohol content (12%) contributes to this impression of gourmet lightness.
Perfect as an apéritif, We Are Young 2025 pairs wonderfully with a platter of fine cold cuts, soft cheeses or simple and generous cuisine. Serve slightly chilled (16-18°C) and drink without delay, although its aging potential of 2 to 5 years will surprise the curious.
A numbered vintage, full of sincerity and zest, to reconcile all enthusiasts with the original spirit of Beaujolais Nouveau: that of celebration, sharing, and wine that does good.

Vinified using carbonic maceration, an emblematic Beaujolais technique, it reveals superb aromatic intensity. Its 9-month aging in concrete vats gives it a silky texture and a beautiful expression of fruit.
A complex bouquet and a balanced palate
This organic Beaujolais seduces with its aromas of candied red and black fruits, accompanied by spicy and undergrowth notes. The palate is round and ample, with a beautiful structure and a persistent finish.
What to enjoy this wine with?
Served at 14-16°C, it can be enjoyed as an aperitif or with shellfish, creamy cheeses or cooked fish.
We Are Young Rouge Beaujolais Nouveau 2024,
Domaine de la Sorbiere
We Are Young is an organic and natural red wine from the Beaujolais terroir produced by Cyril Alonso (winemaker) and Jacques Juillard (winemaker) exclusively for Culinaries and in the Beaujolais-Villages appellation. This is indeed a Beaujolais Nouveau — our Beaujolais Nouveau! — vinified without sulfites or any additives. A pure, natural Gamay juice bursting with youth!
Vinification
The organic Gamay grapes that produced this We Are Young cuvée are grown in Saint-Lager (Rhône) on the granite soils of the Domaine de la Sorbière, owned by winemaker Jacques Juillard, and vinified by Cyril Alonso at the same estate. The two winemakers are used to collaborating together on certain vintages. This 100% Gamay Beaujolais Nouveau is the result of hand-harvesting, a short semi-carbonic maceration (five days) followed by an equally short aging (four days) in stainless steel vats. It is a new wine with all the clarity and indulgence that this implies. No inputs, no chemicals in the vineyard or cellar.
Tasting
We Are Young by Cyril Alonso and Jacques Juillard is an exquisite, delicate and indulgent wine, with a beautiful balance of acidity, fruitiness and sweetness. Its clear and bright light coral color already whets the appetite, and the nose evokes white flowers, a cottage garden in bloom, fresh grapes, raspberries and strawberries. On the palate, we savor Montmorency cherries, Gariguette strawberries, and fresh orange or mandarin peel. It's surprisingly easy to drink, and since its season is short, make the most of it!
Learn more about Tribu Alonso
This tribal name refers to Cyril Alonso, a winemaker, his wife, a naturopath, and their family. They maintain, using organic farming methods, a conservatory of traditional grape varieties from the Rhône-Alpes region located in Marchampt (Rhône), in the heart of the Beaujolais Vert region. This two-and-a-half-hectare vineyard, which existed since 1952, contained forty grape varieties. It currently contains one hundred and forty. This unique location gives Tribu Alonso wines their distinctive style. Instead of being single-varietal microcuvées, they are quite the opposite: wines by grape family, either a Chardonnay containing all the Chardonnays of the house or a multi-Gamay Gamay.
A biotope classified in 2008
The estate enjoys a unique ecological location: the house and the vineyard are surrounded by intact forests, on the steep terrain of northern Beaujolais. Three rivers cross it, and the vines, close to the bedrock, capture all the minerality of the soil. Organic farming is practiced and the work, in the vineyard as well as in the cellar, is entirely manual, without the use of any chemical additives or sulfites in the vinification.
The wines
Complantation cuvées (and for good reason), the wines of Tribu Alonso embrace all the complexity of their grape varieties and the viticultural history of Beaujolais. These are carefully crafted wines, fermented and aged to the sound of Tibetan bowls, whose alpha waves are beneficial to the liquids. The vatting periods are short, to preserve the freshness and fruit, as well as the signature of the soil and grape varieties.
Le Rocher rouge 2018,
This infinitely silky and luscious red, mineral and very straightforward, is a Beaujolais-Villages that is ideally enjoyed between 14 and 16°C. It is made from Beaujolais Gamay grapes grown in the Combe Fleurette area, at an altitude of 550 meters and on an average 40% slope, facing south, on a plot of blue granite with very shallow soil. The vines, twenty-five years old, rest on a rocky outcrop. The harvest is aged in whole bunches for forty days with regular turning. After pressing, the young wine is aged on fine lees in Burgundy oak barrels. Bottling is done in the waning moon, without fining or filtration.

Nicolas Chemarin, nicknamed "P'tit Grobis" as a resident of Marchampt (Beaujolais), is the fourth generation of winemaker on his family wine estate in the Beaujolais-Villages appellation, on stony land where he crafts wines of surprising depth and sincerity. In 2005, he took over two hectares of his father's vines and in 2006 he produced his first vintages. In 2008, he acquired other vines and decided to devote himself solely to his estate, whose very steep terroir consists of poor, rocky soils on gray granite rock. The vines rest on the bedrock through very thin soil, and their roots plunge deep into the rock. Depending on the configuration of the soil, the vines are pruned in goblet or raised on stakes. Their average age is eighty years. The grape varieties, Gamay and Chardonnay, are classically Beaujolais. Nicolas also cultivates two other terroirs in the Régnié appellation: Les Bullats, with light, filtering sandy soils, and La Haute Ronze, very close to Morgon, whose deeper, clayey soils produce full-bodied wines. The vintages undergo long macerations (from 18 to 30 days) with punching down and temperature control (Nicolas works cold, around 20°C). The aging is done partially in thermoregulated concrete vats for a third, the remaining two thirds passing into barrels of four to ten wines in order to provide oxygenation but little or no woody sensation. Nicolas Chemarin is already very well known in the natural world for his sweet and fruity vintages, wines of pleasure, and for vintages from difficult and magnificent terroirs, provided with admirable and complex mineral, aromatic and spicy notes.
Magnum Charpenay White 2017
One of those pure (and all too rare) Beaujolais whites! A 100% Chardonnay from vines planted on the granite and sandy soils around Mont Brouilly. On both the nose and palate, the Charpenay cuvée captivates with beautiful notes of freshly picked white fruits and a slightly honeyed finish.
A natural wine with no added sulfites.
Les Vignes de Jeannot Red 2017
This red wine from the Beaujolais-Villages appellation (of course, 100% Gamay), offering a more than reasonable price-quality ratio, comes from old vines that belonged to Jean Chemarin, ancestor of our current winemaker: hence the name on the label. A freshness that is explained by the altitude of the plot (450 meters). This wine has undergone two years of aging, half in vats and the other half in Burgundy barrels. He is charming, captivating, fruity, with beautiful notes of strawberry.

Beaujolais Lancié, Red 2020
Domaine Bélicard
This Beaujolais Villages cuvée from Domaine Bélicard embodies a more mature and profound version of Gamay, thanks to a sunny vintage and extended aging in large oak casks. A natural, authentic wine, 100% Gamay noir, drawing its structure and tension from the granite soils of Lancié, in the heart of Beaujolais.
Noble aging for vibrant fruit
Vinified in whole bunches, with a short maceration to preserve the grape's vibrancy, this wine undergoes spontaneous fermentation, without any oenological additives. The particularity of this 2020 version lies in its 8-month aging in large oak casks, a noble container that respects the fruit while bringing complexity and depth. This choice gives birth to a more accomplished cuvée, capable of aging while remaining pleasant in its youth.
A supple yet characterful red
The nose opens with candied red fruits, enhanced by sweet spices and a kirsch-like touch typical of well-ripened Gamay. On the palate, the attack is full, the texture velvety, supported by a beautiful mineral freshness. The balance is there: roundness, depth, and drinkability unite without heaviness.
For aperitif or more, if you wish
Serve between 14 and 16 °C, this Beaujolais Lancié 2020 expresses itself equally well alone as an aperitif or paired with stewed dishes, roasted white meats, or artisanal charcuterie. A lively wine to drink now or to keep for up to 5 years.
Beaujolais Village P'tit Grobis Rouge 2021
Nicolas Chemarin
Nicolas Chemarin's P'tit Grobis Rouge is an incredibly vibrant, fruity, mineral, and taut Beaujolais red, capable of converting even the most reluctant to Beaujolais. This is Nicolas's most personal cuvée, which he named after his local nickname. One hundred percent Gamay from the Beaujolais-Villages appellation, with a light ruby color and elegant gurgling, it represents Gamay Noir à jus blanc at its most enjoyable. Light yet full-bodied, beautifully balanced between fruit and minerality, it offers notes of cherry, morello cherry, and raspberry, while perfectly reflecting the granite mineral substrate so important to Beaujolais wines. Nicely acidic and adaptable to all situations: it is both an aperitif and a tasting wine.

This wine has nothing to hide: it shines with its frankness and conviviality.

Beaujolais Village P'tit Grobis Blanc 2021,
Nicolas Chemarin
The sensations offered by this organic and natural white Beaujolais-Villages are complex and difficult to summarize: first, on the nose and palate, the lactic, buttery, and yeasty notes are very present. The fresh acidity is accompanied by flint, notes of white flowers, and a youthful expressiveness. The minerality of this wine is remarkable. Drinking young, it expresses its youth well, and a little age reveals white fruits, a slight richness, and sweet notes. Vinified entirely from granitic Chardonnay as it should be, this white counterpart to the red cuvée P’tit Grobis offers a pale opalescent yellow color. The harvest is directly pressed, followed by settling that does not rob the wine of all its fine lees, hence a slightly cloudy color. It will pair with many dishes; it is also one of the rare wines that can be recommended with vegetarian cuisine.
