Prunelle de Navacelle Beaujolais Lantignie

An elegant and terroir-driven Beaujolais, this vibrant expression of Gamay opens with enticing aromas of raspberry, cherry, and blackberry. The palate is fresh and juicy, framed by silky tannins, a whisper of earthiness, and beautifully balanced acidity.

Sourced from an 80-year-old, certified organic vineyard in Régnié—once farmed by Julien Sunier—this wine is crafted with biodynamic farming and natural winemaking. The vines, deeply rooted in pink granite at 390 metres, are hand-harvested and undergo semi-carbonic maceration before a gentle, slow press in a traditional wooden vertical press. Fermentation with native yeasts takes place in concrete vats, followed by malolactic fermentation in old 2,500L foudres. Bottled unfined and unfiltered, with minimal sulphur only if needed, it’s a pure and expressive Beaujolais that speaks of its place.

As part of a movement to elevate Lantignié to Cru status, Prunelle and her peers are shaping the future of the region. A must-try for Gamay lovers.
