Emeric's note

The first wine of the new harvest

Taste profile

The wine's soundboard.

Tall bars, big wine. Low bars, easy wine.

The story

Behind the bottle

Frédéric Berne farms 15 hectares around the Château des Vergers in Lantignié, organically and biodynamically (Demeter), on granite and blue stone.

His Beaujolais Nouveau is the first wine of the new harvest: whole bunches, native yeasts, bottled young.

The third Thursday of November, sorted. See you at the Beaujolais tasting.

Domaine Frédéric Berne portrait

The maker

Domaine Frédéric Berne

“I realised that we were slaves to a system based on chemicals. The terroir is built on granite, and it is the combination between Gamay and this rock that gives our wines their structure and fruit.”

The place

Beaujolais

Just south of Mâcon, Beaujolais is Gamay country. On pink granite and schist in the north, the ten Crus — Morgon, Fleurie, Moulin-à-Vent and the rest — make structured, mineral reds that age beautifully; the flatter clay-limestone south gives bright, gulpable village wine. It was here that the modern natural-wine movement took root in the 1980s. ~14,000 ha.
