Quentin Harel Beaujolais Charron (2020)

Exciting things are happening in the Beaujolais: following the outbreak of terroir-driven natural winemaking inspired by Jules Chauvet and spearheaded by the likes of Marcel Lapierre and Jean Foillard in the 1980s, a new generation is now following in the footsteps of these early pioneers to make the region one of France’s most dynamic. Quentin Harel perfectly epitomizes this explosion of young talent, having recently taken over the family domaine in the town of Saint-Étienne-des-Ouillières, just south of the Côte de Brouilly.

This wine is beautiful and bright with lots of bold red fruit. Think of this as the wine you serve with your charcuterie platter, or alongside fish or poultry. This would also be a great choice to serve with holiday desserts.
