Description

At the northernmost tip of the Beaujolais region, one of the most famous crus in southern Burgundy.

Saint-Amour is said to have been named after Amour, a Roman missionary who gave his name to the village in which he took refuge.

A statue of Saint-Amour as a Roman legionary can be seen on the corner of a house near the church.

It has become a charming custom to serve this wine at romantic dinners on Valentine's Day.

Tasting

"Easily recognizable for its beautiful purple colour and typical aromas of violet and musk. Ample and round on the palate. Long aftertaste, with intense fruit".
