Drawn from south-facing, rolling sites around Clochemerle and Beaujeu, this Gamay offers a more structured take on Nouveau. Granite and silty soils bring definition and a gently savoury edge. A short whole-bunch maceration under temperature control preserves the wine's bright, youthful perfume. Blackberry, Morello cherry, strawberry preserve and blueberry mingle with pepper, liquorice and violet. The palate is juicy and generous yet lifted by freshness, leading to a long aromatic finish. Serve slightly chilled with charcuterie, poultry or cheese. It is a convivial, characterful choice for welcoming the new Beaujolais season, available from Vinofant.
Between the Mâconnais and Beaujolais, in Charnay-lès-Mâcon, Maison Trénel has been shaping regional identity since 1928—working with Gamay and Chardonnay, and treating each cru as a distinct voice rather than a category....
Gamay is a red grape best known from Beaujolais, producing light to medium-bodied wines with red berries, floral aromas, soft tannins and refreshing acidity.
It is excellent with charcuterie, roast chicken, pork, mushrooms and casual dishes, especially when served slightly chilled.
