Gamay Be Crazy: Beaujolais Nouveau, Villages & Cru

Instructor: Tria Wine Director Lauren Harris

It's Beaujolais Nouveau season, but there's so much more to this corner of France than the first wine of the harvest! Just south of Burgundy, Beaujolais is home to some seriously exciting Gamay, from bright, juicy, easy-drinking bottles to complex, age-worthy wines that stand proudly alongside their Burgundian neighbors.

Join us for a guided tasting of six wines across the Beaujolais spectrum, from the celebratory charm of Nouveau to the added character of Beaujolais-Villages and the distinctive Crus. We'll discover how different villages, soils, and winemaking approaches give Gamay its many personalities.

Expect juicy fruit, savory surprises, fresh acidity, and plenty of reasons to give this underestimated region a little more love. Along the way, Lauren will decode the labels, explain what separates Nouveau from Villages and Cru, and share what makes these wines such delicious discoveries.

Six wines. One grape. A whole lot more to Beaujolais than you think. Come ready to sip, explore, and fall for the many sides of Gamay!

Tickets are $75 per guest.
Tasty Tria snacks will be served.
