Awards and Distinctions: Beaujolais Aujourd’hui 2 Grapes, Macaron Féminalies
Juliénas, whose name is reminiscent of the illustrious Julius Caesar, is the northernmost of the Beaujolais crus, growing on schist and granite soils. A wine with an imposing structure, firm tannins, and a complex aromatic profile featuring raspberry and wild strawberry, all topped with a mineral touch. A success!

Bettane & Desseauve
Rated Estate (2014 Guide) Selected (An estate or winery that impressed us with one or more of its wines, though we are unable to offer a general assessment of the style of its entire range)
About the estate:
"Christophe Coquard founded his own wine merchant in 2005. He offers a range of wines covering every appellation in Beaujolais, and more recently, the neighboring Mâconnais region. The labels are beautifully designed, and the prices remain reasonable. The company did not present its 2008 vintages as we had requested, but instead offered the 2009s, which have a more favorable reputation. In this vintage, several crus disappointed us, but the regional appellations were bursting with fruit.”
