Beaujolais
Discover the Beaujolais appellations
The Beaujolais wine region is located to the East of the Massif Central. With its 20,000 hectares, it spans over 50 km, reaching Lyon. The huge vineyard of Beaujolais can produce more than 1 million hectoliters of wine per year, essentially Gamay for red wines, with only a few hectares of Chardonnay reserved for white wines.
Each year, during the month of November, the entire world holds its breath and waits for the release of the famous Beaujolais Nouveau. But we shouldn't forget about all the other appellations from the Beaujolais region, such as Brouilly, Côte-de-Brouilly, Chénas, Chiroubles, Fleurie, Juliénas, Morgon, Moulin-à-Vent, Régnié or Saint-Amour.
