The refinement of Gamay for a dense cuvée, built on powerful tannins and enveloped by notes of black cherries. The brainchild of chef Paul Bocuse and his friend Georges Dubœuf, this wine is a wonderful ally for fine bistro cuisine!

Expert opinion
Guide Hachette des vins
Domaine noté Award-winning wines (Wines from this producer regularly win awards in the guide)
About the domain :
Joined by Franck, Georges Duboeuf is still at the head of the wine merchant-breeder business he founded in 1964, and which has made a major contribution to the reputation of Beaujolais. The company works with numerous winegrowers and cooperatives, and generates 75% of its sales internationally. Georges Duboeuf is also a pioneer in wine tourism, with his oeonoparc (Hameau Georges Duboeuf) set up in 1993 in the former Romanèche-Thorins railway station.

About the domain :
Merchant-breeder since 1964, the innovative and media-savvy Georges Dubœuf was the first to promote and market Beaujolais. His son Franck has taken over from him since 1983. Thanks to first-rate technical equipment, vinification has progressed even further in recent years. Georges Dubœuf's tireless ambassadorial work in promoting his region is admirable, and the worldwide renown enjoyed by the company is well justified. The Beaujolais wine region owes him a debt of gratitude!
