Château des Jacques 2006 Clos de Rochegrès Gamay (Moulin-à-Vent)
- $35
Exploding with perfumes, aromas of violets, sweet cherries and spice, this is an impressive wine, with wild cherries and damson plums. It is taut, almost Pinot Noir in its velvet texture, finishing with ripe, sweet fruit sustained by tannins.

Château des Jacques 2011 Clos du Grand Carquelin Gamay (Moulin-à-Vent)
- Cellar Selection
Beautifully perfumed, this has swathes of ripe cherry and plum, with a hint of wood aging. The balance is already well established, with a line of crisp acidity that sits behind the rich, sweet fruit. With its tannins, this needs to age for at least three years.

Jacques Charlet 2009 Champ de Cour Gamay (Moulin-à-Vent)
- Cellar Selection
Such a concentrated wine, with the intensity of red Burgundy but with the juiciness of Beaujolais. Swathes of smooth fruit wash around the palate, coupled with a touch of minerality and a dense texture. Age for 2–3 years and more.

Château de la Terrière 2009 Gamay (Moulin-à-Vent)

Château des Jacques 2011 Clos de Rochegrès Gamay (Moulin-à-Vent)
This is rich, spicy and full of red cherry flavor. It also has a dark, firm structure from the granite-based soil. The acidity that cuts through the fruit lends balance. Age this for 2–3 years.

Lucien Lardy 2011 Les Thorins Gamay (Moulin-à-Vent)
- Editors' Choice
- $20
A densely tannic wine, showing the influence of Beaujolais’s granite soil, this is currently dominated by minerality and structure rather than fruit. Considering the weight of the wine, the fruitiness is likely to develop over the next 2–3 years.

Georges Duboeuf 2009 Domaine des Rosiers Gamay (Moulin-à-Vent)
- Online Exclusive
A big, bold and fruity wine that is full of ripe berry fruits, rich and generous. This is Beaujolais at its most exuberant, a celebration of delicious fruit. It could age, but is ready to drink.
