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.

Lucien Lardy 2009 Gamay (Fleurie)
- Cellar Selection

An opulent, ripe, full-bodied wine, with sweet cherry and spice flavors, very rich. The juicy sweetness of the fruit is given shape by the firm, dusty tannins. Likely to age, this is already drinking well.
