From the French wine-growing region of Beaujolais comes this fine bubbly alternative based on classic Gamay grapes nicely combined with spicy herbs from the vineyard. A well balanced flavor bomb with a pleasant sweetness and the multi-layered herbal aromas from lemon balm to mint to sage and thyme, rounded off with the fine acidity of fresh lemons and juice apples.

Romain des Grottes is a treasure discovered in the lower plains of Beaujolais (south of Broiully) quietly turning his appellation on its ear with dedicated farming and a winemaking philosophy geared to one thing in mind – drinkability.
The organic and biodynamic farming methods Romain employs with very little plowing in the richly biodiverse vineyard produces gorgeous, expressive fruit that is perfect for the light-touch vinification techniques he favours. Not even copper is used, and when necessary Romain uses preparations from different plants. They all hit straight at the core of good drinking.
