Comte de Langeron Saint Amour

A rare one from Beaujolais!


2023 Comte de Langeron Saint Amour Cru Beaujolais...$24.99
100% Gamay
Rare Cru - only about 5% of total Cru Beaujolais production is from Saint Amour
One of the rarest gems in Beaujolais, Saint-Amour is the smallest and most elusive of the 10 crus—and this beautifully crafted bottling from Comte de Langeron is a prime example. Imported in tiny quantities and had to find in the U.S., this small-production wine showcases the elegance and charm of Gamay at its best. The 2022 vintage offers vibrant red cherry, soft spice, and floral notes with a silky texture that makes it endlessly drinkable.  Very floral and fruity nose. The nose of this wine jumps out of the glass with cherries and ripe strawberries. The palate is rich with a hint of dark chocolate and it is medium to full bodied. Great structure and presence in the glass with its vibrant color. This Saint Amour is a great year round red wine. Great in the summer, just put chill it for about 15 minutes. Also perfect food wine with a wide variety of foods. So Versatile!
