2024 Lapierre Le Beaujolais

"Le Beaujolais" is produced by sibling duo Mathieu and Camille Lapierre from 2.5 hectares of 70-year-old Gamay vines planted on sandy granitic soils. The fruit is sourced from three parcels in the commune of Lancié, located just beyond the Morgon AOC boundaries. Made using whole-cluster carbonic maceration and raised entirely in tank without oak influence, this cuvée showcases the Lapierre family's iconic natural winemaking approach as a Triple 'A' producer, offering an accessible expression of their renowned style.
