Savor the essence of Burgundy’s Beaujolais region with this exquisite 2021 Gamay from Famille Dutraive. Crafted from two distinct vineyard parcels in Lantignié, this wine embodies the transition to organic farming, offering a pure and expressive taste of the terroir.

The first parcel features young vines planted on a sun-drenched south-facing slope, where sandy loam soil imparts a vibrant minerality and freshness. At an altitude of 1,200 feet, these vines thrive in a cool climate, resulting in a wine with bright acidity and lively fruit flavors.

The second parcel, home to 40-year-old vines, sits atop a plateau at 1,600 feet. Here, the combination of elevation and well-drained soil yields a Gamay with deeper complexity, structured tannins, and a subtle earthiness that lingers on the palate.

Perfect for those seeking an organic red wine from Burgundy, this 2021 Famille Dutraive Gamay is a versatile choice for casual gatherings or special occasions. Its moderate alcohol content (11%) makes it an ideal pairing for light dishes, charcuterie boards, or simply enjoyed on its own.
