Domaine des Nugues
Domaine des Nugues was bought by Gérard Gelin in 1976, and is now run by his son Gilles. Domaine des Nugues spearheads the Beaujolais-Villages appellation, but also produces wines in the Morgon, Fleurie and Beaujolais appellations... The Domaine des Nugues vineyard comprises some 33 hectares of vines located in northern Beaujolais, bordering the Moulin-à-Vent, Fleurie and Morgon crus.

The Domaine des Nugues vineyard is run using sustainable agriculture methods. The two grape varieties grown, Gamay noir à jus blanc (red wines) and Chardonnay (white wines), are harvested by hand, and vinified in whole bunches in the Beaujolais tradition. One of the finest estates in the region.

"Gamay at its purest!

Pure expression of a pleasantly fruity Gamay. Aromas of jammy fruit and spices delight from the very first nose. Gourmet on the palate, with sublime length. Enjoy it with red meat, lamb chops for example, or for the sweet tooth, try it with a chocolate-raspberry moelleux! This is a Morgon you absolutely must have in your cellar!

"What flavors!"

"A pink granite terroir, planted with 70-year-old vines, placed in the hands of a winemaker who has already amply proven himself. Add to this the excellent ripeness achieved in the 2020 vintage, and it's hardly surprising to find a full-bodied Moulin-à-vent with a long finish. The whole reveals an aromatic profile dominated by black fruits. A bottle that augurs well for the future". (Le Guide Hachette 2024)

"A lively Fleurie

"A lively, zesty Fleurie, whose aromas of ripe red cherry, strawberry and summer flowers are accompanied by slightly sappy tannins. It could well improve with bottle age, as there's nothing green about it." (James Suckling 2023)

gamay
gourmet

Produced for the first time in 2006, Libertine des Nugues expresses Gamay in an original, novel and highly successful way. This rosé de presse, with its low alcohol content and luscious sugars, has aromas of small red fruits, supported by the lovely acidity typical of the grape variety. We can't get enough of it!

rich
finesse

This cuvée combines finesse and richness. On the nose, notes of black fruit with a hint of spice. On the palate, we find the same aromatic structure with good length. A fine introduction to the estate's flagship appellation.

"Evolved color. The fruit is quite fair, with a hint of graphite and a mineral touch. The wood emphasizes without excess, the whole is crystalline, and the palate is well managed for the vintage. This wine has a long finish worthy of a vintage". (Le Guide des Meilleurs Vins de France 2017 - RVF). A red with great length, to be enjoyed now!

(2014 vintage notes)

This top-quality cuvée reflects the care we take with the Chardonnay grape variety. A white wine with a beautiful pale gold color, developing delicate notes of white flowers and citrus fruit, and offering a palate characterized by finesse and length. A great bottle to discover!

Born in 2008, this whimsical sparkling wine is made using the traditional Champagne method. A fruity effervescent, very natural and light, opening with notes of fresh grapes and red berries. A wine to be enjoyed chilled as an aperitif or on any occasion...

Domaine des Nugues - Beaujolais-Villages 2012

Made from the estate's young vines, this pretty rosé has a brilliant color and floral and berry notes on the nose, with a pleasant roundness on the palate. Enjoy as an aperitif with cold meats, or at the table. A wine for pleasure!
