Description
  • Several decades of determined campaigning by the local growers finally bore fruit in 1988 when Régnié was made the tenth 'Cru' parcel of Beaujolais. The appellation covers 1500 acres of Gamay vines and it shares the same microclimate and characteristic granite subsoil as its immediate neighbours of Morgon to the north and Brouilly to the south. Maison Louis Latour selects only the highest quality fruit which have been grown on the best located sites that display the unique flavours of the individual Cru.

Wine tasting
  • Tasting Note
    Sparkling an attractive garnet colour, this Régnié 2012 offers an intense bouquet of floral aromas. The rich character opens to reveal charming notes of blackberry and strawberry, giving way to fine spicy aromas. Freshness envelops the palate with lovely black berry notes. Flower flavors can be smelt. Silky tannins linger on the finish.
  • Food Pairing
    Grilled meat - charcuterie - cheese.
