Trenel Fils 2010 Côte du Py Gamay (Morgon)
- Cellar Selection
- $24
The sense of structure that is so evident in 2010 wines is particularly apparent in this perfumed, rich and firmly tannic selection. It shows the hard edges of granite soil, plus juicy red fruit. Concentrated and complex, it needs several years to mature.

Trenel Fils 2010 Gamay (Saint-Amour)
- $24
Named after a Roman centurion rather than a god of love, Saint-Amour produces structured Beaujolais. With its solid tannins and firm structure, this wine proves the point. It is concentrated, with acids and minerally red fruits dominating at the moment. It needs to age for 1–2 years.

Trenel Fils 2010 Esprit de Marius Sangouard Gamay (Juliénas)
- $20
Full of firm tannins, this Juliénas shows solid structure and ripe red fruits. The fine acidity should help the wine age, and the juicy, fruity character should appear after a year or more.

Trenel Fils 2010 Gamay (Chiroubles)
- $20
This has a mineral structure that’s laced with acidity and red currant flavor. It has a tight texture and a crisp feel, showing a serious, austere side of Beaujolais. It’s all balanced by the bright, crisp finish.

Trenel Fils 2008 Tirage Limité Gamay (Côte de Brouilly)
With a smooth, velvet texture this negociant wine is topped by black berry and plum fruit flavors, followed by some sweet tannins and wood. It’s in a modern style, where the wood is very apparent, but it does still benefit from final juicy acidity.

Trenel Fils 2011 Gamay (Côte de Brouilly)
- $20
A rounded wine, this has an attractive red-jelly flavor and light acidity. It is full and rich, with fine acids on the finish. Keep for six months.

Trenel Fils 2011 Cuvée Rochebonne Gamay
- Online Exclusive
- $15
Light and fruity, this has a red cherry flavor that’s filled with refreshing acidity. The banana flavor from the fermentation is a little too prominent, but this is still a bright, ready-to-drink selection.
— R.V.

Trenel Fils 2008 Gamay (Beaujolais-Villages)
- Online Exclusive
Curiously lightweight, with only a hint of berry fruits. It is soft, very open, leaving freshness but lacking flavor.
