**Beaujolais** ... — a region in eastern France, just south of Burgundy, devoted almost entirely to juicy, food-friendly red wine. **Wines & grapes** — Almost all red, made from the Gamay grape, ranging from light everyday bottlings to the more structured wines of the ten named Crus such as Morgon, Fleurie and Moulin-à-Vent. **Character** — Granite soils in the north and a gentle climate give reds that are bright, fresh and low in tannin, bursting with red-berry fruit and floral notes; the Crus can add depth and the ability to age. **Good to know** — Beaujolais Nouveau, released each November just weeks after harvest, made the region famous, but its serious Crus deserve far more attention.
