This is a light-bodied red wine from the Beaujolais region of France, made from the Gammay grape varietal.

a Beaujolais "Classic" in every sense of the word. Light, entertaining Beaujolais that has fruity flavors of strawberry and cherry. Easy going, easy drinking for red and white wine lovers alike.
This Bordeaux will not disappoint. A terrific blend of Merlot, Cab Franc and Cab Sauvignon - this wine offers both good value and fine flavor. A great Bordeaux for first-timers and structured enough for those with a more experienced palate.
A well worn Burgundy, with super ripe fruit flavors and a medium bodied presence.
A lovely blend of Grenache, Cinsault and Syrah grapes, producing a fairly aggressive wine with plenty of spunk and fruit-forward flavor.
