Located in the southern part of winegrowing Burgundy, Château de
Varennes is located in Quincié-en-Beaujolais, north of Lyon. This 11th
century chateau followed in the footsteps of its owners. It was modest
and humble under the Villions in the 13th century, and rich and
magnificent at the time of the Lords of Beaujeu in the 14th century. After
that followed a succession of various owners. Since 1809, members of
the Charveriat family have owned and operated the Château de Varennes
estate.
As elsewhere in the Beaujolais, the Gamay grape is king here, capable of
subtle expressions when planted in top-quality siliceous and granitic
terroirs. The vines are planted in granitic soil on the south-facing slopes
around the chateau. Such conditions are optimal for encouraging the
ripening of the Gamay grape and its characteristic expression of red fruit.
VINIFICATION/AGEING

Aging in stainless steel vats for 6 to 7 months.
TASTING

blackcurrant) notes. The palate is fresh, fleshy and delectable with notes

fruitiness.
