Domaine de la Couvette Beaujolais Nouveau 2024 (pre-order offer)
Gautier Marion is the fifth generation of the family to manage Domaine de la Couvette, tucked into the gently undulating countryside of Southern Beaujolais. If you could picture what a quintessentially small French producer should look like then Gautier's property would come very close.
He takes great pride in making wines in the traditional carbonic macerated style using his trusty, old concrete vats, which he uses to age the wines as well. Respecting not only the winemaking traditions, but also their 11 hectares of land and the vines that are up to 50 years old, they demonstrate their commitment by making a fully organic Beaujolais, which is full of ripe red fruit, spicy, earthy notes and a lovely smooth minerality.
This organic Beaujolais Nouveau is hand crafted, capturing all the freshness of Gamay, with bright, crunchy red fruit flavours, delightful hints of spice, some earthy notes, this wine offers a supple, easy-to-drink style.
Best drunk before the end of the year (as is traditional with Beaujolais Nouveau). In fact, the French would have traditionally finished it off on Boxing Day! It's a lovely, easy apéritif, beautiful when served chilled. And handily, it's a wonderful accompaniment to Thanksgiving dinner the week after release date...

NATIONAL DELIVERY
We do not deliver wine internationally.
You will receive an automated confirmation on ordering. It is unavoidable that wines will sometimes be out of stock, so we will always contact you to advise a delivery estimate in this case. If you need the wine for a particular date, or before a particular date please make sure you specify this.
Deliveries are normally made weekdays before 4pm.
Unsuccessful deliveries will be attempted the next working day if nobody is available to accept the delivery, unless you specify a place to leave the shipment in this case. If a request is made for wine to be left unattended, Vino Gusto will not be held responsible if the wine goes missing after the courier has delivered it.
If a delivery has not arrived in the timeframe, please let us know. Although the courier should tell us if there are any breakages, please let us know of any damage within 24 hours of receipt, so we can investigate. Please also be sure to check the number of cases for which you are signing; we cannot replace wine that has been signed for but not received.
