Beaujolais is a famous French wine appellation that pioneered the natural wine phenomenon, which explains why we offer such a wide selection. Beaujolais is located south of the Burgundy wine region, to which it belongs. It extends over the north of the Rhône department and part of Saône-et-Loire, geographically corresponding to the Beaujolais mountains. It includes ten crus which are communal appellations (Brouilly, Côte-de-Brouilly, Chénas, Chiroubles, Fleurie, Juliénas, Moulin-à-Vent, Morgon, Régnié and Saint-Amour). These communal appellations, as well as the Beaujolais-Villages appellation, are produced in the north of the region, on granitic soils, while the Beaujolais appellation without communal distinction is produced in the south of the region, on clay-limestone soils. In its broadest sense, the Beaujolais appellation includes red Beaujolais, red Beaujolais Nouveau or Primeur, Beaujolais Supérieur, white Beaujolais, rosé Beaujolais and rosé Beaujolais Nouveau or Primeur. There are also Crémants, based on Chardonnay, vinified in Beaujolais but classified as Crémants de Bourgogne.
The grape varieties of the Beaujolais appellation are Gamay Noir with white juice (the majority, alongside other Gamays) for red and rosé wines, and Chardonnay (the majority) and Aligoté (the minority) for white wines.
Red wines are generally lively and fruity, balanced, with notes of red fruits, good acidity, and great drinkability. These are very diverse wines, ranging from fluid, thirst-quenching, and light "glouglou" to deep, elegant, and full-bodied wines found, for example, in the Pierres Dorées area. Beaujolais natural wines express their fruit and terroir with great freshness and freedom.
What are the different Beaujolais wines? The Beaujolais region includes, on the one hand, the communal cru appellations, in the north, associated with a locality: Brouilly, Côte-de-Brouilly, Chénas, Chiroubles, Fleurie, Juliénas, Moulin-à-Vent, Morgon, Régnié and Saint-Amour, as well as Beaujolais-Villages, which surrounds the communal cru area. In the southern part of the region, the Beaujolais AOC is produced without communal distinction. Mostly red, Beaujolais wines can also be white or rosé, and white primeurs or rosé primeurs.
What is the main grape variety of Beaujolais wines?
The majority of Beaujolais wines being red, the main grape variety is Gamay N, called "Gamay Noir à jus blanc". Then come Chardonnay (for whites) and several other varieties of Gamay, as well as Aligoté, Pinot Gris and Melon.
What is the difference between Beaujolais Nouveau and Beaujolais-Villages?
These two wines are unrelated: Beaujolais Nouveau is a red or rosé Beaujolais primeur, meaning a wine of the current year marketed, with almost no aging, from the third Thursday of November. While it is true that it comes from the Beaujolais and Beaujolais-Villages appellations, it should not be confused with the latter, as they also produce aged and cellar-worthy wines.
What are the typical aromas of Beaujolais wines? Beaujolais red wines are supple and easy-drinking, with a fresh and lively flavor (especially for natural wines, due to carbonic maceration: this method preserves the fruitiness and promotes aromas of fresh red fruits such as cherry, morello cherry, strawberry, raspberry or redcurrant. Rosé wines also have these fruity notes. White Beaujolais, based on Chardonnay, are fresh and tangy with a little richness and notes of yellow fruits. They are similar to white wines from the Mâconnais.
What are the 12 appellations of Beaujolais?
The 12 Beaujolais appellations are: Beaujolais Beaujolais Villages Brouilly Chénas Chiroubles Côte de Brouilly Fleurie Juliénas Morgon Moulin-à-Vent Régnié Saint-Amour
These appellations include the two generic appellations, Beaujolais and Beaujolais Villages, as well as the ten Beaujolais crus, each offering unique characteristics and flavors depending on their specific terroir.

Le Rocher red 2017
Le Rocher 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 25-year-old vines rest on a rocky outcrop. The harvest is left to vat for 40 days in whole bunches 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. This infinitely silky and delicious red, very mineral and very straight, will accompany meats in sauce, noble fish and even chocolate desserts.
Tasting temperature: between 14 and 16 °C.
Natural wine without added sulfites.
Morgon Côte de Py 2023
Jean Foillard is one of the great names in natural Beaujolais, established in Villié-Morgon since the 1980s. Guided by an artisanal approach, he produces lively, straightforward, and expressive wines, always true to their terroir. Each cuvée bears his signature: purity of fruit, subtle aging, and absolute respect for the soil.
Morgon Côte du Py 2023 is the estate's flagship cuvée, from the famous volcanic hillside overlooking the village. This terroir, rich in schist and manganese, produces an intense, structured, and deeply rooted wine. In 2023, the cuvée combines power, freshness, and finesse with remarkable energy.
The nose opens with aromas of ripe black fruits, licorice, and violet, with a slight smoky touch. On the palate, the wine is ample, deep, with an elegant tannic structure and a beautiful mineral length. It is a Morgon with character, built for aging, but already very appealing in its youth.
Serve this Côte du Py 2023 with roasted meat, duck breast, or a mushroom sauce dish. It will also perfectly complement more rustic cuisine such as a fine rib steak or a gratin dauphinois. A gastronomic wine, to be enjoyed at a grand table.
Vin du conservatoire White 2024
Terroir, plot size and grape varieties
Nestled in the unexpected corners of Beaujolais, far from the clichés of ubiquitous Gamay, the 2024 Vin du Conservatoire unveils a little-known and profoundly vibrant facet of this generous land. Crafted by the Tribu Alonso, a collective of winemakers passionate about biodiversity and freedom, this still white wine draws its originality from an atypical plot where Grenache Blanc and Macabeu coexist in perfect harmony. But the magic also comes from a unique, symbiotic planting: Muscat Chardonnay, Floreal, Villard Blanc, and Alain Bouquet intertwine in a vegetal ballet that is both free and precise. Here, each grape variety plays its part in rhythm with the seasons, for a collective expression of the terroir, far from the beaten path.
Cultivation methods
The Tribu Alonso cultivates much more than grapes: it cultivates a philosophy. A philosophy of unconditional respect for all living things, without artifice or labels, but with a keen awareness of the winemaker's role as guardian of a fragile balance. No synthetic treatments, constant observation of the vines, and minimal intervention in the cellar: this is the credo of this committed tribe. Winemaking follows the same guiding principle, where the human hand guides rather than corrects. The result? A wine without makeup, naturally fermented, that expresses the richness of its ecosystem in every glass.
Tasting & pairings
From the first whiff, the 2024 Vin du Conservatoire captivates with its floral finesse: delicate violet, spring white blossoms, and a light whisper of ripe apricot that caresses the senses. On the palate, the tension is palpable, with a vibrant acidity that structures the wine without making it stiff. The texture is supple, almost caressing, carried by a subtly saline and lingering finish. One finds there that sensation of purity, like spring water flowing through living soil.
At the table, this characterful white wine is wonderful as an aperitif, where its freshness awakens the taste buds. It then reveals itself to be a perfect match for smoked fish, trout gravlax, or white meats with herbs, highlighting their aromas without ever overpowering them.
A rare, free and vibrant wine, which tells its own story of Beaujolais.
Chateau Roulant Red 20/21
Benoit Camus
Château Roulant is a Beaujolais red wine, organic and natural (Ecocert certified), made from Gamay. Classified as a Vin de France, it is produced by Benoît Camus at his Pierre Dorées estate, in the south of the appellation. Its name evokes the itinerant life once led by the winemaker, a former seasonal agricultural worker.
Vinification
The Gamay vines of Beaujolais grow on clay-limestone soils. The very steep plots prohibit any mechanized work. The harvest, carried out by hand, undergoes a three-week semi-carbonic maceration. The wine is aged in concrete vats for fifteen months.
Tasting
The Beaujolais wines from Pierre Dorées are structured, long-lasting, and beautifully fruity. Here, after admiring a bright garnet color, we find strawberry, raspberry, red cherry, and cranberry, with a beautiful acidity in the mid-palate giving way to a rich and voluptuous finish. Freshness and acidity, leather, earth, and some animal notes. Wonderful richness in the mouth that we will enjoy accompanying with cold meats and cured meats, poultry such as pigeon or duck. Or even Red Meats .
Learn more about Benoît Camus
You might think he's itinerant, with his vintages called "Château roulant" or "Vagabond", but for Benoît Camus, it's a memory of his previous life, when he was a seasonal farmer in the Rhône Valley and as far as Roussillon. Since 2003, he has settled in Southern Beaujolais, in the Pierres Dorées terroir, to make organic (Ecocert) and natural wines.
Nature before, nature always
Before purchasing his seven-hectare estate from an old winemaker, the vines had not yet seen pesticides or chemical additives. Many in Beaujolais worked this way. He made his first vintage in 2006, "natural without knowing it," he says. A brief attempt at chemical spraying to treat grape worm definitively dissuaded him from adding anything to the vineyard or the cellar. He acquired Ecocert organic certification and continues to make natural wines.
The Pierre Dorées terroir
The southern Beaujolais, with its clay-limestone soils, produces wines that are more structured and powerful than those from the granite soils of the North. This is the profile presented by the reds of Benoît Camus, natural wines that are straight, dense and long-aging, with good acidity and well-integrated tannins, not forgetting abundant, rich and seductive fruit.
Art Brut Red 2023,
La Tribu Alonso
A vibrant, hybrid, and bold red, born from the granite terroir of Beaujolais
The Art Brut 2023, produced by La Tribu Alonso, is an atypical and captivating cuvée.

An intense and original tasting
On the nose, the Art Brut 2023 charms with its aromas of black cherry, kirsch and leather, with subtle nuances of pepper and spices.

Cuvée YARD Champs Elysées Rouge 2022
Les Souriants
Les Souriants present a single-plot interpretation of Pinot Noir with their Cuvée YARD Champs Élysées 2022, sourced from a unique granite terroir in Beaujolais. This natural wine, certified organic, explores the finesse and depth of this grape variety, often underestimated in the region, yet finding superb resonance in these poor, mineral soils.
The Champs Élysées plot benefits from an ideal exposure and a light granite soil that forces the vines to root deeply, concentrating the aromas in small berries brimming with energy. The winemaking process remains true to the estate's philosophy: one month of maceration, gentle extraction, fermentation with indigenous yeasts, and one year of aging in old barrels to respect the identity of the place.
In the glass, the wine offers a pure and charming nose: black cherry, candied red fruits, faded rose, with a subtle vegetal touch reminiscent of ripe stems. On the palate, the texture is fine, linear, fresh, almost crystalline. The Pinot Noir expresses itself in an elegant, slender version, with a light tannic structure and a floral and mineral finish.
YARD Champs Élysées is a gastronomic red, ideal with roasted meats, farm-raised chicken with chanterelles, or elaborate vegetarian dishes. It can be enjoyed now without decanting, or can evolve harmoniously over 5 years. Serve it lightly chilled, between 16 and 18°C, to reveal its full complexity.
A sincere, distinguished, and poetic single-plot cuvée.

Domaine Bélicard

A full-bodied, expressive red wine, made for sharing and festive gatherings, in a decidedly natural yet always accessible style.
A supple natural wine
The grapes are vinified with a short maceration to preserve the fruity momentum of the grape variety. Fermentation takes place with indigenous yeasts, without oenological inputs, followed by 9 months of aging in concrete vats, which respects the integrity of the juice while giving it a beautiful roundness. This wine has nothing to hide: it shines with its frankness and conviviality.
Ripe and juicy fruit
The nose evokes bright red fruits, but also notes of pomegranate, black fruits, and candied fruits. On the palate, it is supple, smooth, with a generous texture and a beautiful freshness. The tannins are melted, the whole remains tonic and carried by a beautiful energy. This magnum is enjoyed in its breadth, unpretentious but with great pleasure.
The magnum of simple happiness
Serve at 14–16 °C, without decanting, this Lancié 2018 is perfect for dinner aperitifs, charcuterie boards, bistro dishes, or generous picnics. A friendly wine as we like them, to drink now or within 5 years.
Ceci n'est pas un vin White 2023
Ceci n'est pas un vin is still a wine, white, dry, organic, and natural, with no added sulfites. Made in Beaujolais by Cyril of La Tribu Alonso, it is classified as a Vin de France. It is 100% Chardonnay, but there are twenty-eight different varieties in the bottle. Just as the red wine Ambre dissolve is inspired by Salvador Dalí, this one obviously alludes to Henri Magritte (see the label).
Vinification
The collection of twenty-eight Chardonnays from the ampelothèque, from which Ceci n’est pas un vin is made, is planted on a half-hectare plot on granite, with wild grass, agroforestry and no tillage. The vines, pruned in the goblet style, are between four and thirty years old. There are Chardonnays here of all tastes and colors (white, pink, muscaté, etc.), and it seems that the multiplicity of grape varieties gives a whole new face to this Chardonnay, unfortunately a little overused in the world of viticulture. "We are moving away from the boring Chardonnay," says Cyril. The manual harvest goes into direct pressing and, after a 48-hour settling process, only sees from the vat to its bottling. Alcoholic fermentation without starter culture using indigenous yeasts, malolactic fermentation also in fiberglass vats. Zero chemical inputs, in the vineyard and in the cellar, and zero added sulfites.
Tasting
Surprisingly, Ceci n’est pas un vin: the opposite of classic Chardonnay, it has great qualities of resistance. Solid, fine and balanced. A dry white wine with no added sulfites that has a very long shelf life once opened, it is rare and unique. It can last, recorked, for a whole week. On the nose and palate, it is a marvel of perfume and aroma, as if it offered the quintessence of Chardonnay through all its varieties. Salty, iodized, aromatic and floral, it evokes peach or apricot blossom, white peach, and its acidity-alcohol balance will allow it to be kept between 5 and 7 years. It can be drunk whenever you want, with oysters, shellfish, raw or smoked fish, tapas, fine starters and any elegant and refined cuisine.
Learn more about the Alonso Tribe
This tribal name refers to Cyril Alonso, winemaker, his wife, naturopath, and their family. They take care, using organic farming methods, of 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 ampel library, which has existed since 1952, contained forty grape varieties. It currently contains one hundred and forty. This unique location gives the Tribu Alonso wines their particular style. Instead of being single-varietal microcuvées, they are quite the opposite: wines by grape variety 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 untouched 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, both in the vineyard and in the cellar, is entirely manual, without the use of any chemical additives or sulfites in the winemaking process.
The wines
Cuvées of co-plantation (and for good reason), the wines of the Tribu Alonso embrace all the complexity of their grape varieties and the viticultural history of Beaujolais. These are carefully crafted wines, made with great care, 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.
Fleurie Red 2021,
Domaine Bélicard
Within the Fleurie AOP appellation, renowned for its fine and elegant wines, Domaine Bélicard, certified organic (AB, Eurofeuille), produces a cuvée that expresses all the delicacy of Gamay Noir.

A Fleurie of finesse and freshness
Vinified using the traditional Beaujolais method, with whole-bunch maceration, this wine benefits from gentle extraction, preserving all the purity of the fruit. The 10-month barrel aging brings complexity and elegance, while respecting the natural expression of the terroir.
A vibrant nose and an airy palate
Upon opening, this organic Fleurie reveals a fresh and delicious nose, marked by tangy notes of crisp red fruits, evoking raspberry and redcurrant. On the palate, the attack is lively and silky, offering a beautiful mineral tension and an elegant and persistent finish.
Served at 14-16°C, this Fleurie AOP is ideal for a refined aperitif, summer barbecues or a gourmet salad. Its freshness makes it a perfect companion for convivial moments, and its aging potential of 5 years will allow it to evolve towards even more subtle aromas.
Beaujolais Villages Smack (exclusive cuvée) Red 2023,
A vibrant tribute to the freshness and distinctive character of Gamay
The Beaujolais Villages Smack 2023, produced by Nicolas Chemarin, is an exclusive cuvée that captures the essence of the granite terroir of Beaujolais. Made from 100% Gamay, this AOC Beaujolais Villages red wine is distinguished by its liveliness, elegance, and modern take on tradition. It is vinified using ancestral methods, with a 15-day semi-carbonic maceration carried out with whole bunches, followed by careful aging for 11 months in concrete vats.
A fresh and expressive tasting
The Smack 2023 seduces from the moment it opens with its bright aromas of strawberry, raspberry and crisp red fruits, enhanced by subtle floral and vegetal notes. On the palate, it offers a supple and silky texture, supported by a lively acidity that gives it an irresistible freshness. The delicate and persistent finish perfectly reflects the characteristics of Gamay and the mineral nuances of the granite soils.
An ideal companion for conviviality and gastronomy
This versatile cuvée pairs perfectly with a wide range of dishes. It will enhance fine charcuterie, white meats such as roast chicken, or more rustic dishes such as poultry stew. Its freshness and fruitiness also make it an ideal choice for an aperitif with friends or casual meals.
Served between 12 and 14°C, without the need for decanting, Beaujolais Villages Smack is ready to be enjoyed today. Its aging potential of 5 years will also allow you to appreciate its evolution, with deeper and more complex aromas.
Zapoï Rouge 2020
Les En Hauts
Rather gurgling but with substance, silky and velvety, dry and tangy, this delicious and indulgent wine offers a rather animal nose with notes of hay. On the palate, cherry, a lovely length, and a nice acidity. Zapoï, a cuvée from the Les En-Hauts project, is the result of the joint effort of winemakers Damien Coquelet and Frédéric Cossard. It comes from fifty-year-old Gamay vines growing in Beaujolais. It is the result of whole-bunch semicarbonic maceration, and is aged for ten months in concrete eggs.
The word "Zapoï" makes you think of Groland, obviously, but do you know the origin of the term? Zapoï is a Russian practice consisting of a binge lasting several days, the result of prolonged alcohol consumption. A proper zapoï should lead to a blackout (you don't remember anything), and regular awakenings where you get drunk again to avoid a hangover. In some cases, you wake up far from home in the snow. This scourge on life expectancy, fortunately, has only a very distant logical connection with the wine we are concerned with here. Let's just say that, presumably, the sound of the name appealed to the two winemakers.
Find out more
Les En-Hauts is not strictly speaking a wine estate but a project of vintages produced in partnership between Damien Coquelet and Frédéric Cossard. These two great figures of Burgundy viticulture—yes, Beaujolais is in Burgundy—had every reason to join forces to create colorful and flavorful vintages together.
Frédéric Cossard is a biodynamic and natural star of Burgundy winemaking, who gives voice to Burgundy's terroirs and wines, undeformed by agricultural chemicals. His vintages are pure and elegant without artifice and are among the most sought-after in Burgundy. His practice is not limited to Burgundy, as some vintages are made from grapes purchased in other regions. His vines are cared for according to the principles of biodynamics: homeopathic treatments based on essential oils, copper, and sulfur in minimal doses. The harvest is entirely manual, carried out at full maturity.
Damien Coquelet, for his part, is the worthy successor of the great organic winegrowers to whom we owe the advent of nature in the Beaujolais region: he is the son-in-law of Georges Descombes and Jean Foillard was his mentor, continuators of the pioneering work of Jules Chauvet and Marcel Lapierre. Owning nine hectares in Morgon on granite-sandy soils, he cultivates two and a half hectares plus a few leased vines: in all, four hectares on the legendary Côte du Py. A specialist in Morgons that Morgonnent and Chiroubles that Chiroublent, he embodies the true nature of Beaujolais.
Côte de Brouilly 2022
Son of Jean Foillard, Alex skillfully carries on the family philosophy while asserting his own style. Having been established for several years, he cultivates his vines with the same respect for living organisms, in pursuit of precision, pure fruit, and drinkability. His vision: natural, profound, yet always accessible Beaujolais crus.
Côte de Brouilly 2022 comes from hillside vines on the volcanic slopes of Mont Brouilly. This cuvée, with its straight and chiseled profile, accurately expresses the mineral freshness characteristic of this terroir. It is a wine of altitude and relief, taut, vibrant, and already very expressive.
On the nose, aromas of blueberry, violet, and warm stone blend elegantly. On the palate, the tension is immediate, carried by a beautiful freshness, fine tannins, and a saline finish. A structured wine, yet very drinkable, maintaining an ethereal touch.
Ideal with grilled meat, herb-crusted poultry fillet, or oven-roasted vegetables. It also pairs wonderfully with lightly spiced Asian cuisine. Serve slightly chilled to reveal all its finesse.
Brouilly 2022
With sensitivity and rigor, Alex Foillard is carving his own path in Beaujolais, while drawing inspiration from his father's exacting standards. He crafts fresh, low-intervention wines where the fruit expresses itself freely. A winemaker to watch closely.
Brouilly 2022 is a delightful and charming cuvée, stemming from the deeper soils of this southern Beaujolais cru. Less austere than Côte de Brouilly, it is more supple, generous, with vibrant fruit. A wine for pleasure, spontaneous and full of vivacity.
The nose explodes with wild strawberry, fresh cherry, and a slight peppery touch. On the palate, the wine is supple, crunchy, juicy, with a silky texture and a refreshing finish. A bottle that radiates youth and deliciousness.
Perfect as an aperitif, with a charcuterie board or a savory tart. It will also pair very well with a carpaccio, a summer barbecue, or a lentil salad. To be enjoyed without fuss, for the pure pleasure of the fruit.
Cuvée YARD Rouge 2022
Les Souriants
With YARD 2022, Les Souriants estate offers an original and captivating interpretation of Pinot Noir in Beaujolais, a region more accustomed to Gamay expressions. This natural red wine, certified organic, is a pure artisanal product, crafted with care and patience to offer a luminous and sincere expression of the grape variety, without embellishment or artifice.
Coming from vines grown on granitic soils, Pinot Noir finds a mineral tension and vibrant freshness here, far from clichés of opulence. The winemaking remains gentle and precise: a one-month maceration to delicately extract color, aromas, and structure, followed by one year of aging in old barrels, without new wood, to preserve the finesse of the fruit.
On the nose, it's a floral and fruity explosion: crunchy cherry, candied red fruits, fresh rose. A fine and expressive aromatic profile that extends to the palate with a beautiful texture, supple but structured. The wine combines a delicate, almost silky touch with fresh and digestible energy. The finish is straight, clean, slightly saline, leaving a persistent floral sensation in the mouth.
YARD is an elegant red, perfect for aperitifs, roasted meats, pigeon with reduced jus, or even a beautiful vegetarian dish with mushrooms. It can be enjoyed now, without decanting, or aged serenely for 5 years. Served between 16 and 18°C, it reveals the full potential of Pinot Noir in a reinvented Beaujolais, between artisanal precision and free spirit.

A natural cuvée, vinified without inputs, which reveals the delicacy of the cru in a serious and generous version.
Precise winemaking for an expressive Gamay
The grapes are harvested at full ripeness, then macerated for two weeks to develop a beautiful structure without excess.

A floral nose, a crisp and silky palate
The bouquet immediately seduces: peony, violet, then blackberry, blackcurrant, and juicy dark fruit.

A bottle for special occasions

Fleurie, Red 2020
Domaine Bélicard
Among the ten Beaujolais crus, Fleurie is undoubtedly the most ethereal, the most floral, and Domaine Bélicard offers a natural and elegant interpretation here. This 100% Gamay Noir, organically certified, grows on the granitic slopes of the cru, which give this wine remarkable mineral finesse.
Gentle winemaking for a delicate wine
The grapes, picked at perfect ripeness, undergo a short maceration of a few days to extract just enough matter without harshness. Fermentation occurs naturally, without exogenous yeasts or additives. The six-month aging takes place in barrels that have held several wines (not new), bringing complexity and suppleness without masking the fruit.
A Fleurie of character with finesse
The nose is expressive, featuring fresh red fruits, violet, and a subtle spicy touch. On the palate, the texture is fine, the structure supple yet present, with a mineral tension that lengthens the finish. The style is silky, digestible, almost floral, but without mawkishness – a straightforward, vibrant, and well-balanced Fleurie.
To enjoy now or to cellar
Served between 14 and 16 °C, this wine will pair equally well with a refined aperitif or light, vegetable-based cuisine. It will also shine with roasted poultry or delicate festive dishes. Drink now or cellar for up to 5 years.
