RED FRIDAY DEAL The Wines of Beaujolais and its Crus at 15% Discount. Any Quantity. All Weekend Offer. + IN-STORE Beaujolais Tasting, Friday & Saturday

Beaujolais is November’s ideal paramour, if not particularly during the third week when the region’s infamous Beaujolais Nouveau is released. As a bright, food-fabulous foil to most Thanksgiving courses, the fourth week in November is when we look to the ten sophisticated Crus of Burgundy’s southern sister region for the best examples of what Gamay can produce.

Post-feast, Elie’s is proud to offer both an in-store tasting and a 15% discount on any quantity of Cru Beaujolais, including the fantastic Fleuries and Morgons of Clos de Mez, Thibault Liger-Belair’s luscious Moulin-à-Vent and the fresh and complex 2021 Armand Heitz Juliénas. They represent the supplest wines from the granite and limestone-rich hills of the region’s north where winemakers are enjoying a renaissance of their roots by producing non-manipulated, non-interventionist wines. Such examples reflect the granitic glories that Gamay brings to this odd appendage of Burgundy, which is utterly un-Burgundian in grape, style or intent.

With Gratitude,

Elie
