Burgaud’s Beaujolais-Lantignié is made from his oldest vines, which are mainly planted on the fabled blue granite soils that bring class and depth of flavour to wines like Morgon Côte du Py. There are ten villages in Beaujolais that qualify for Cru status (Fleurie, Morgon, Moulin-à-Vent, Brouilly et al) – and if this wine is anything to go by then Lantignié is in the running for accreditation.

 

Planted on pink granite soil which provides structure. Alexandre aims of a fine balance of structure, finesse and complexity.

Deep red. Cherries, dark chocolate, a touch of mint. Whole bunch character. Becomes spicy with air. More complex than the Beaujolais Villages and displaying more minerality from the granite in the soil. Round, full and delicious. This could easily be confused with a wine from the Cote d’Or.

Wine Advocate - William Kelley

Confirming its fine showing last year, Burgaud's 2018 Beaujolais-Villages Lantignié bursts with aromas of cherries, raspberries, violets and spices. Medium to full-bodied, velvety and succulent, it's juicy and gourmand, built around powdery tannins and tangy acids. Drink 2020-2026.
