Tasting Notes

Fresh and lively, with a distinctive hum of a rich core, rounded edges, and a distinctive stony, mineral texture. Notes of fresh red and black cherries with perfectly ripened raspberries laced with baking spice and floral notes all wrapped up nicely in supple, easy-to-drink tannins. We recommend serving this with a bit of a chill!

Pairing Block

Food Pairing

Classic Beaujolais Gamay’s vibrant red fruit, bright acidity, and supple tannins make it especially versatile with fresh, savory, and lightly rustic dishes. Its mix of fruit, and subtle floral notes complements herbs, mild spices, and vegetable-driven preparations, while its lift keeps richer or saltier foods feeling balanced. The wine’s easy charm and food-friendly structure pair best with charcuterie, roast chicken, grilled vegetables, and simple bistro-style fare where brightness and delicacy are key.

About the Producer

Dating from the 14th century, when it was owned by the Lords of Beaujeu, Chateau de Julienas has always been a winemaking estate. The current northern part was rebuilt at the end of the 16th century. The authentic vaulted cellars built of local stone are dated 1744. It was in 1907 that Thierry’s great-grandfather, Claude Condemine bought and restored the Chateau and improved the vineyard. He passed the estate and his passion down to his son, Francois, who - in turn - handed the baton to Thierry. Today, the estate covers 40 hectares of AOP Julienas, Fleurie, and Moulin-a-Vent vines, making it the biggest independent wine estate in the appellation Julienas.
