Beaujolais Nouveau Jean Foillard 2024

The wine

Here is the Beaujolais Nouveau from Jean Foillard, an iconic Beaujolais winemaker, who invites us to discover this flavourful, fresh and fruity wine. The nose contains red fruit notes (fresh strawberries) and sweet spices, while the palate is full of energy. This wine possesses a crisp texture and concludes with a more mineral finish.
We would recommend that you open this bottle with friends and serve it at 13°C paired with a charcuterie board.
A Beaujolais legend, Jean Foillard keeps the regional tradition of creating Beaujolais Nouveau close to his heart and we at iDealwine are huge fans! This type of wine produced from macerating Gamay grapes for a short time has been released every November since 1951.

About the Producer Jean Foillard

Domaine Jean Foillard is, undeniably, one of the most famous producers in Beaujolais. The domain has about 15 hectares of vines, mainly in the Morgon and Fleurie appellations. Jean Foillard, who took over the property in 1981, was inspired by Marcel Lapierre to manage his vines in a style that is as close to organic as possible. Foillard's techniques aim to preserve as much fruit as possible without the use of sulphur. His meticulous and delicate vinifications result in wines with a silky mouth feel. His wines stand out for their intensity of fruit, their freshness as well as for their good balance of structure and delicacy. These are wines that can be enjoyed now or in a few years and are a gold standard for Beaujolais.
