Domaine Franck Chavy Beaujolais Villages Blanc Cuvée Les Granites d'Or Chardonnay 2020

Beaujolais wine is much more varied in style than one often thinks. It can be light and refreshing, but it can also be complex and subtle. It can be made with carbonic maceration but it can even be oak aged. A recent tasting with an extensive range of wines from Franck Chavy in Morgon illustrates it beautifully. Britt met with Franck and tasted his wines, the classic thirst-quenching style but also oak-aged and with no added sulphur.
