This classic Juliénas delivers everything we love about traditional Beaujolais – vibrant red fruits, floral lift, and a fine tannic backbone. Aromas of peony, raspberry, redcurrant, and strawberry jump from the glass, while the palate is bright, expressive, and lingers with a satisfying finish.
Made by the Vincent family, who’ve been rooted in the region for years, this wine is crafted the old-school way: partial de-stemming, fermentation in open tanks, and ageing in both barrel and tank. No carbonic maceration here, just pure, terroir-driven character from granite and slate soils.
It's drinking beautifully now, but has the structure to evolve gracefully over the next 6–8 years. First Class Beaujolais.

Vintage report
The 2019 growing season in Beaujolais started with a bang — literally. Hail battered vineyards across the region in June, reducing yields but concentrating what remained on the vines. A blistering summer followed, with temperatures soaring well above average and precious little rain to cool things down. By harvest time in early September, growers were picking healthy, sun-scorched grapes with thick skins and intense concentration — quite different from the fresh, gulpable style Beaujolais had built its reputation on.
What emerged was a vintage that split opinion faster than a corkscrew argument. The Gamay grapes produced wines with deeper colour and more structured tannins than usual, showing blackberry and plum flavours rather than the typical bright red fruits. Some producers embraced this richer style, whilst others found themselves swimming against the current of their own terroir. The wines are drinking well now but have the backbone to age until 2027 — unusual longevity for a region better known for immediate pleasure than cellar-worthy bottles.
