Côte Roannaise Éclat de Granite, Domaine Sérol 2024
Red Wine from France - Loire
‘Genuinely, properly exciting!’ An hour from Beaujolais, and on similar granite soil, Sérol’s 2024 Côte Roannaise gamay is utterly stunning, especially given its under-£20 price tag and was a shoo-in Wine Champion for 2026. ‘Serious complexity, great authenticity’ and ‘a kind of wildness to it’ with fleshy cherry fruit and earthy undertones. A must-try for Beaujolais lovers.

Domaine Robert Sérol
The Côte Roannaise is a little-known appellation of the southern Loire valley, close to the river’s source near Lyon. Domaine Sérol is the leading estate here, situated on gentle slopes of sandy-granite soils where the gamay grape, more usually associated with Beaujolais, does incredibly well. Winemaker Stéphane Sérol consistently produces plump, fragrant reds unsurprisingly not dissimilar to the style of a good Beaujolais-Villages but even brighter. These are best served lightly chilled and are refreshingly vibrant in style. Some gamay rosé is also produced and Sérol has newer plantings of viognier from which he makes a vin de pays that is floral with characteristic Loire crispness. The Sérols share their passion for the wines of the area with the Troisgros family, famous for their three-star Michelin restaurant in the town of Roanne where the red Vieilles Vignes cuvée is the house wine.

Pale-to-mid garnet. True Gamay nose and really rather attractively meaty. Lots of acidity and grip. Masses of energy. Worth investigating! JancisRobinson.com
