This wine is made from 100% Gamay, from the northern-most village of the Beaujolais. Due to its northern location, this cru ends up producing the lightest wines of the region. Vineyards with southern exposure balance out the wines elegance, giving it enough ripe fruit to be a delicious expression of Gamay. With a fresh floral nose, and light red berry fruits, this wine is soft and refreshing, with enough structure to be serious. Pair it with salmon, cut up into cubes, broiled, and tossed in your version of a classic Yum-yum sauce.

Details

From our importer: The Saint-Amour cru is in the northern part of the Cru Beaujolais area, not far from the Maconnais where Chardonnay is grown. The terroir here starts to shift and become more similar to the soils of Burgundy, still with granite soils, but clay and limestone start to be present in Saint-Amour soils as well.

These soils with clay are limestone create the heavier style of Saint-Amour with a darker color, more alcohol and coarser in style. Compared to the elegant, fine Fleurie, the Stéphane Aviron’s Saint-Amour is structured and firm, but still with soft, red fruit.

The grapes are hand-harvested and then vinified in the traditional Beaujolais style. Whole bunches are used followed by seven to eight days of maceration before pressing. The wine is then aged completely in cement tank, to retain the bright fruit of the Saint-Amour.
