You don’t have to wait until Saint Valentine’s Day to enjoy a bottle of Saint- Amour. This is a rich, powerful, chewy wine with mellow tannins. A bright, ruby-coloured Beaujolais with a perfumed nose of redcurrant, blackberry and hints of mineral. It’s a lively, versatile food wine with ripe fruit flavours that linger at the finish.

Today, Saint-Amour wine has two faces, depending on the soil composition and the type of vinification. The first, a “primeur” style wine produced from clay and silica soils, is precocious, tender and charming with dominant peach and floral aromas. The second, an autumn wine grown on granite pebbles, is more powerful and fleshy, marked by kirsch and raspberry aromas and a hint of spice evocative of cinnamon. Both are delightful wines, as they should be.
