Description

It’s hard not to fall in love with this deliciously, summery red that can be drunk at room temperature or chilled when the outside temperatures are warm. From Domaine Andre Colonge, from Lancie, in the Beaujolais region of France. This 100% Gamay is a light, fine, elegant delight!

TASTING NOTE: A pale crimson-purple colour. On the nose: Bright and fresh with aromas of ripe red fruits such as strawberry, raspberry and red currant, which are very typical of this style, on the palate: It’s juicy with soft silky tannins, filled with sweet red fruit flavours and light but flavourful finish, that keeps you going back for more. It’s a light red with refreshing acidity rather than a medium or heavy style, which is what good Beaujolais should be! 13% alcohol by volume.

FOOD PAIRING, STORING AND SERVICE: This is an enjoyable and versatile wine that we suggest should be served cool, but not too cool, at 13 to 14°C. The lower tannin in the wine is often the pointer for reds that can be chilled. Try pairing chicken liver parfait, red currant fruit spread over baguette crostini, or a creamy spinach and artichoke dip. Essentially, however, it’s a great wine for a variety of charcuterie, canapes, mezzes, and summer dishes, therefore, it’s great to have on hand!

ABOUT: Domaine Andre Colonge is a family estate with a history of growing wine dating back to 1789. Serge, Samuel and Landry Colonge’s estate is based at Lancie in the Beaujolais region of France, which sits just to the south of Burgundy and to the north of the Rhone Valley regions. Their 37 hectares (approximately 90 acres) of land covers different vineyards in the Crus (the best appellations) of Fleurie and Brouilly, plus the broader Beaujolais Villages and Beaujolais appellations.
