About this Event
In Beaujolais, Gamay finds a remarkable range of expression across hillside vineyards and distinctive soils. The region’s wines belong naturally at the table, alongside rustic cooking, beautiful cheeses, and the generous bistro traditions of neighboring Lyon.
This class explores Beaujolais beyond Nouveau, with a focus on how vineyard origins and winemaking shape the wines in your glass. Four curated pairings bring that story to life through regional cheeses, savory dishes, and comforting winter flavors. Expect a closer look at the region’s crus and a fresh appreciation for Gamay’s versatility.
Lively wines, rustic food, and the pleasure of a long evening at the table.
