Jean Foillard - Beaujolais-Villages 2022 (750ml) New YorkWinemaker Notes Foillards wine, with its sensuous notes of red fruit, mouthwatering acidity, and low alcohol, tastes as if he crafted it specifically for this bouchon table. With a slight chill, this rouge, made with Gamay from parcels around Villi Morgon, Lanci, Saint Amour, and Saint tienne la Varenne, is as dreamy as the scene.
Perfect for long after-dinner conversations

Broad of shoulder and deeply structured yet retains a sense of sleek style
The grapes are macerated
Pleasant acidity and minerality on the palate are followed by the discreet creamy aftertaste that is typical of wines matured on lees
ample and elegant structure
The Andre Clouet Grand Cru Reserve NV is 100% Pinot Noir
This blanket of rolled pebbles contributes a lot to Beaucastel wines: it stores the intense heat of the Mediterranean sun during the day and slowly releases it back to the vines during the night
