Jean-Michel Dupré is the fifth generation winemaker, now assisted by daughter Cindy, on the outskirts of Beaujeu, the market town that gives its name to the region. His Beaujolais has always been made with minimal intervention to preserve the natural vibrant fruit character. This year he has made a Natural Beaujolias Villages Nouveau, without the addition of sulphites or chemical processes; a young wine is the perfect wine to enjoy the ripe and flattering juicy fruit character.
It is made from an old vine parcel of organically farmed vines planted in 1940 in a plot of Beaujolais Villages that commands a beautiful view across to the church towers of Régnié and the hill of Brouilly.
This natural Beaujolais Villages 2024 wine is suitable for Vegans and Vegetarians.

Historically, Beaujolais Nouveau was made to celebrate the end of the harvest. The wine was released early on the third Thursday in November, just after midnight. This quickly became known as “Beaujolais Nouveau Day” when producers raced to get their wine shipped to markets around the world by that date every year.
