GOLD MEDAL: Decanter Wine Awards
94 POINTS: Wine Direct Tasting Team

Sandy pink granite and pebbles. Hillside with south exposure in the village of Lantignié, Regnié or le Perréon. Selection of old vines averaging at 50 years old. Substainably grown grapes and harvested manually.

“If you like Beaujolais packed with freshness and energy then the Les Enracinés is for you.  This delicious, vibrant red wine is made from 50 year old Gamay vines planted on the typical granite soils of Beaujolais around the villages of Lantignie, Reignie and Le Perreon.  Made without any added sulphur this smooth, balanced red is bursting with juicy cherry, raspberry fruit & floral notes underpinned with fine minerality & freshness."

Les Enracinés Beaujolais comes from Domaine de la Madone, a top-tier family estate nestled in the granite-rich village of Le Perréon. Though technically just outside the official cru zone, Le Perréon is widely considered on par with the best—and this wine makes a compelling case. Grégory Barbet work some of the steepest slopes in the region, home to old-vine Gamay, many over 50 years old. Les Enracinés captures the intensity, depth, and mineral precision of true Beaujolais terroir—bold, expressive, and every bit as good as the top crus.
