The white beaujolais is a rare treat

Beaujolais has been fashionable for a while. I don’t mean popular – although there was an unexpected lockdown spike in beaujolais sales last year. I mean that in bars in Hackney, or if you chat to sommeliers and winerati, people who used to fly around the world tasting and poking around vineyards, you’ll find a lot of love for the lightish red wine made from the gamay grape. Especially if it’s organically farmed and from a cru such as Morgon or Fleurie. It’s always a joy to find coveted wine at affordable prices. And there’s been a lot of chat lately about one of beaujolais’s other hidden treasures: beaujolais blanc.
