Moulin-à-Vent La Vigne de Mon Père, Elisa Guerin 2023
Red Wine from France - Beaujolais
Unfined, unfiltered and with only minimal SO₂, this is a pure, honest and earthy expression of Burgundian-style gamay. On the nose, it’s all crushed raspberries and violets, juicy yet composed, with supple red fruit, fine tannins, and an earthy edge on the palate that is refreshingly unadorned and unmistakably moreish. Elisa, fourth generation and daughter of Philippe Guerin, is now at the helm of Famille Guerin, whose holdings include some of the region’s most coveted terroirs. Since taking over in 2018, she’s been turning heads with a fresh vision and thoughtful approach to producing fine Beaujolais. La Vigne de mon Père comes from one of the family’s old plots, on loam and granite soils flecked with limestone. Elisa places biodiversity and soil health at the heart of her work, embracing a hands-off philosophy in the cellar.

As prices of the best pinot noir in Burgundy continue to climb, the still - underrated Beaujolais gamay becomes more compelling, none more so than this serene, red - fruited and lighttannin expression.
