Whole-bunch fermentation adds a layer of complexity, bringing in whispers of pepper, dried herbs, and forest floor. The 10-day maceration brings depth without weight, making this wine both flavourful and refreshingly drinkable.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cstrong\u003e\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eFood matching\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003cbr\u003eThis wine pairs perfectly with charcuterie and cheese platters, grilled or roasted vegetables, with Asian inspired dishes or with barbecue and light meats.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cstrong\u003e\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eVinification\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003cbr\u003eThe process begins in the vineyard, where all grapes are hand-picked with care—allowing for gentle handling and selective harvesting of only the ripest bunches. Once at the winery, the fruit is sorted and left intact for whole-bunch fermentation, a traditional method in Beaujolais that brings out the wine’s floral aromatics, spice, and subtle earthiness. Fermentation takes place in temperature-controlled tanks to preserve the purity of fruit and maintain freshness. A 10-day maceration allows for gentle extraction of color, tannin, and character from the skins and stems, building a wine with both structure and vibrancy.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cstrong\u003e\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eGrape variety\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003cbr\u003eGamay\u003cbr\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eCountry: \u003c\/strong\u003eFrance\u003cbr\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eRegion: \u003c\/strong\u003eBeaujolais\u003cbr\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eVintage:\u003c\/strong\u003e 2023\u003cbr\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eVariety: \u003c\/strong\u003eOther Reds\u003cbr\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eAlcohol volume: \u003c\/strong\u003e13.0\u003cbr\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eClosure: \u003c\/strong\u003eScrewcap\u003cbr\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eVolume: \u003c\/strong\u003e750\u003cbr\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eWine style: \u003c\/strong\u003eRed (Light Medium Bodied)\u003cstrong\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eReviews:\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eRay Jordan, Wine Pilot - 93 Pts\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eAn appealing Beaujolais made from 100% gamay. Vibrant ruby colour with aromas of strawberry, raspberry and a touch of cherry ripe. The palate is smooth and seamless, medium weight, with a slightly earthy character adding complexity. Finishes long with pleasing chalky acidity. Cellar: 5 years.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eKen Gargett, Wine Pilot - 92 Pts\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eWhether wine lovers have been forced to look to Beaujolais thanks to the stratospheric prices achieved in neighbouring Burgundy, or whether it is because the locals have got their act together in recent years and are now producing the sort of wines that are really impressing, it hardly matters. Perhaps a touch of both, but certainly a fair bit of the latter. Beaujolais Villages is not top of the tree but that allows this to sit very much amongst the value buys around at the moment. An earthy maroon colour, the nose gives us notes of florals, cherries, wild raspberries and an array of red fruits. Very much an attractive if slightly earthy drinking style, chilling it young would not go astray. There is a touch of grip and a surprisingly long finish. Well crafted, this is ideal summer drinking for those who want a good red without too much heaviness. Enjoy it over the next three to four years.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Coeur des Sages","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":49876213858459,"sku":"CSGGMY23-PER","price":69.0,"currency_code":"AUD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0462\/3899\/0491\/files\/CoeurdesSagesBeaujolaisVillagesGamay2023.jpg?v=1792573645","url":"https:\/\/personalisedcellars.com.au\/products\/personalised-coeur-des-sages-beaujolais-villages-gamay-2023-13-750ml","provider":"personalisedcellars","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
