White Beaujolais

Serve in a White Wine Glass

Famous for its Gamay offerings, the Beaujolais region's vineyards can only be planted with no more than 15% white grapes. These White Beaujolais (aka Beaujolais Blanc) wines, though residing in the shadow of their juicy red sibling, are well-worth a taste and express a lightly floral, fruity, nutty, and mineral character.
