Description

The Dominique Piron Beaujolais-Villages is one of the best value entry-level Beaujolais on the Australian market. Crafted from 100% Gamay sourced from 50-year-old vines, this wine delivers everything you want in a fresh, light-bodied red—bright fruit, natural freshness, and incredible drinkability.

On the nose, bright notes of cherry, raspberry, and pomegranate leap from the glass, while the palate reveals a juicy core supported by crisp acidity and fine tannins. It’s light, crunchy, and wonderfully refreshing, perfect for enjoying with a slight chill. The granite soils and hand-harvested grapes lend a touch of complexity, making this a seriously fun yet refined wine that’s a joy to drink.

Whether you’re looking for a great companion to your next picnic or a versatile red to pair with grilled chicken or salads, this  Beaujolais-Villages is our go-to. Delightfully smashable, it’s proof that quality Beaujolais doesn’t have to break the bank!

    A great quaffer

The vines for Piron's Beaujolais-Villages surround the crus on the hills of the northern half of Beaujolais. They mostly have an east-facing exposition and have sandy granitic soils comprising small stones that store the sun's heat and then release it gently during the night. This helps conserve the natural freshness of the fruit. These vines at 50 years old on average.

100% Gamay grapes are harvested by hand, selected on a sorting table, and given a very gentle, partial destemming before semi-carbonic fermentation takes place in cement and stainless steel. The fermentation never lasts longer than 8-10 days in order to preserve freshness.

Dominique Piron

Fourteen generations of Pirons have grown and made wine in Beaujolais, with the latest, Dominique Piron, having a 40 year legacy of producing top-flight wines from the most iconic Crus.

Le Guide des Meilleurs Vins de France dubbed him, "one of the architects of the revival of Morgon, tackling with boundless energy the expression of wines of terroir, vinified in the pure tradition of Beaujolais....”.

These wines are awesome, pure expressions of the great Crus of the region. This is what Beaujolais is about. These reds are energetic, vibrant and complex. There is some serious Gamay on offer here from a regional icon.
