Vinification of Beaujolais Villages by Jean Loron

The grapes for Beaujolais Villages - Jean Loron come from the best parcels of the renowned Beaujolais Villages appellation. The hilly landscape, cool nights and mineral soils offer Gamay optimal conditions so that the full aromatics and strength of character of this grape variety can be perfectly expressed.

In cultivation, Jean Loron relies on sustainable vineyard management and selective harvesting. Only perfectly ripe grapes are used for this wine. After traditional hand harvesting, the grapes are gently brought to the winery, where they undergo a careful selection. This guarantees the highest quality and purity.

Vinification follows the classic Beaujolais style: with the help of so-called carbonic maceration – partial carbonic fermentation in the tank – the wine develops its unmistakable aroma and its delicate tannins. After pressing, the wine matures further in temperature-controlled stainless-steel tanks. This preserves the freshness, the pure fruit expression and the delicate style. Jean Loron has mastered the art of maintaining the balance between tradition and modern cellar technology.

In summary, vinification proceeds in these steps:

1. Selection and careful cultivation of the Gamay grape

4. Gentle pressing and temperature-controlled fermentation
5. Aging in stainless-steel tanks for freshness and balance
