Frequently Asked Questions

What Is Beaujolais Wine?
Beaujolais is a French appellation and the source of the fruitiest wines worldwide. Young, fruity and lively, this red wine appeals to connoisseurs and new wine enthusiasts alike for its approachability, and there’s nothing like it anywhere else. Beaujolais is renowned for uncomplicated and young red wines, but the region also has contemplative labels. There’s something for every occasion in Beaujolais. Let’s talk about this fun French wine region and its unique red wines, from the easy-to-drink Beaujolais Nouveau to the wines made in the area’s Crus. Beaujolais is more sophisticated than you think!

What Are the Most Popular Beaujolais Wines?
The most popular wines from Beaujolais are, without a doubt, the region’s Nouveau wines. The unique wine style is the first to come out to the market every year, as it is released in the same vintage in which the grapes were picked. The “new” wine is as fresh as wine gets, as it is on the shelves every third Thursday of November, just over a month after the grapes were harvested! And although Beaujolais Nouveau is crowd-pleasing delicious, these are not the most memorable wines in the area. That distinction goes to the wines made in the region’s sub-regions or Crus.

What Are the Different Types of Beaujolais Wine?
There are four main types of Beaujolais wine. Beaujolais Nouveau, Beaujolais, Beaujolais Villages and Beaujolais Cru. The finest wines in the area come from one of the ten Beaujolais Crus: Moulin-a-Vent, Saint-Amour, Brouilly, Cote de Brouilly, Fleurie, Julienas, Morgon, Chenas, Chiroubles and Regnie. No matter their quality tier, producers make all Beaujolais wines with Gamay, the region’s flagship grape. Gamay is a thin-skinned varietal not dissimilar to Pinot Noir. In fact, the two grapes are related. The winemaking traditions in Beaujolais also play a part in the appellation’s fame. The youngest wines, especially the Nouveau, are made with the carbonic maceration method, which vinifies the grapes fast while retaining their fruit-forward personality.

Are Beaujolais Wines Expensive?
Beaujolais wines are rarely expensive. Beaujolais Nouveau is, in fact, cheap and offers a refreshing take on Burgundian wines. Wines made in one of the area’s Crus can be a bit pricier, but the wine is more complex and age worthy. Besides, the finest Beaujolais wines are on par with Communal-level wines in Burgundy in terms of quality and flavour profile, and they’re often better priced. Beaujolais is not pricey compared to similar wines. Still, French wine can be more costly than that from a lesser-known wine-producing country. French wine is famous for a season, and you often must pay a premium to enjoy it.

What Are the Best Beaujolais Wines?

Wine lovers often consider Beaujolais wine an easy sipper, and although some of the region’s wines are certainly easy to enjoy, the appellation is also a source of cellar-worthy wines.
