Les Griottes is a perfect example of what makes good Beaujolais so popular. It's made from the youngest vines on the estate so it's all about fresh fruit flavours and juicy acidity. It is called Les Griottes because the bottom of the vineyard is lined with cherry, wild cherry and morello cherry (griotte) trees. 

It's a fruit driven Beaujolais with spicy intense cherry flavours, just like its name suggests.

This wine represents great value for money as it shows what good Beaujolais is about. 

Drink lightly chilled.

This is one of the most sought after, cult Beaujolais and available on allocation only. Earthy, complex and limited - our allocation is 12 bottles only and that's it for 2024. 

Brother and sister, Mathieu and Camille Lapierre, are doing a tremendous job of keeping their fathers’ vision alive. Again, volumes aren’t huge and it’s a juggling act to share the different cuvees around, but these are cracking Beaujolais.

Deeply coloured, smooth and structured Gamay from Morgon in northern Beaujolais. Aromas and flavors of stone fruit and especially cherry are present, becoming kirsch as the wine ages. 

Gorgeous fruit forward Beaujolais from the son of legendary winemaker Jean Foillard based in Morgon. Here Alex follows in his father's footsteps with some of his tried and tested techniques; whole-cluster fermentation with natural yeasts, no fining or filtration, and no additives of any kind save for a minute sulphur dose at bottling. Very aromatic and textural, super clean and fruity.

This wine is named after Lantignié, where Alexandre Burgaud is based, located to the west of the famous Morgon Cru in Beaujolais. He owns just five hectares and the vines have an average age over 60.

This is a bright, vibrant Gamay with moderate acidity and soft tannins, cherry and raspberry flavours and a pleasant finish.
