Beaujolais Masterclass

8 From 8: Discover 8 Faces of Gamay

Presented by Patrick Schmitt MW, attendees of this upcoming masterclass in January will discover 8 wines from 8 domaines, winemakers, and cooperatives who have vinified less than 8 millésimes or released less than eight cuvées on the market in the Beaujolais region.

Located between Lyon to the south of France, Pays Mâconnais to the north, and bordered by the Saône River to the east, the Beaujolais region spans the Rhône and Saône-et-Loire départements. The Beaujolais vineyards stretch out over 13,500 hectares of vines claimed in 12 Beaujolais appellations where more than 2000 estates, nine wine cooperatives and 200 operators involved in the wine trade thrive.

The Beaujolais appellations stand out thanks to the expression of their wines whether festive, expressive or exceptional. The 100% red crus in the northern half: Brouilly, Chénas, Chiroubles, Côte de Brouilly, Fleurie, Juliénas, Morgon, Moulin-à-Vent, Régnié and Saint-Amour; as well as Beaujolais and Beaujolais Villages in the south, and surrounding the crus, are produced in all three colours and in vin nouveau.
