Beaujolais
Beaujolais is a pretty region just south of Burgundy producing fruity, mainly red wines from the Gamay grape. The flatter land in the southern part of the region accounts of about half the production of AC Beaujolais. A quarter of wines made are Beaujolais Village wines from the hillier sites. Finally, the regions finest wines come from the ten 'crus' in the northern half of the area: Brouilly, Chénas, Chiroubles, Côte de Brouilly, Fleurie, Juliénas, Morgon, Moulin-à-Vent, Regnié and St Amour.
