Description
- Several decades of determined campaigning by the local growers finally bore fruit in 1988 when Régnié was made the tenth 'Cru' parcel of Beaujolais. The appellation covers 1500 acres of Gamay vines and it shares the same microclimate and characteristic granite subsoil as its immediate neighbours of Morgon to the north and Brouilly to the south. Maison Louis Latour selects only the highest quality fruit which have been grown on the best located sites that display the unique flavours of the individual Cru.
