One of the key traits of Beaujolais wines is their lightness and freshness. These wines are made predominantly from the Gamay grape, which gives them a vibrant and fruity profile. They are often described as having flavours of red fruits like cherry, raspberry, and strawberry, with a hint of floral notes.
The acidity in Beaujolais wines is typically high, which adds to their refreshing and lively nature. Another distinguishing feature of these wines is their low tannin content, making them smooth and easy to drink.
In terms of popular wine types from Beaujolais, there are three main categories that stand out. The first is Beaujolais Nouveau, which is released on the third Thursday of November every year. The second type is Beaujolais Villages, which is a step up in quality and complexity compared to Beaujolais Nouveau. Finally, there are the Cru Beaujolais wines, which are considered the highest quality wines from the region.
