The 2023 Beaujolais from Domaine Marcel Lapierre is a red wine made from 100% Gamay, sourced from old vines with an average age of 70 years. The wine comes from three plots in the Beaujolais region, located in the commune of Lancié (a neighbouring commune to Villié Morgon). This wine was usually partially used for the Raisins Gaulois cuvée, but starting with the 2021 vintage, it has been vinified separately. The Lapierre Beaujolais has a ruby colour. The nose is fresh and intense, with aromas of red fruits like raspberry and subtle spicy notes. On the palate, the wine is rich, elegant, and refined, with a delightful freshness.

Beaujolais is a wine region located in the eastern part of France, known for producing light-bodied red wines made from the Gamay grape. The region has a long history of winemaking dating back to the Roman times, and it was in the 14th century that the Gamay grape was first planted in the region.

The style of production in Beaujolais is unique, as the grapes are fermented using a process called carbonic maceration, which results in a fruity and fresh wine with low tannins. The wines are typically released within a few months of the harvest, and are meant to be consumed young.

There are three main styles of Beaujolais wines: Beaujolais Nouveau, Beaujolais Villages, and Cru Beaujolais. Beaujolais Nouveau is the most famous style, and is released on the third Thursday of November each year, just weeks after the harvest. Beaujolais Villages is a step up in quality, made from grapes grown in the best vineyards of the region. Cru Beaujolais is the highest quality level, made from grapes grown in one of the ten designated cru villages.

Overall, Beaujolais wines are known for their bright fruit flavors, low tannins, and easy-drinking style. They pair well with a variety of foods, including charcuterie, roasted chicken, and grilled vegetables.
