Carra Beaujolais-Villages Gamay Noir
Domaine Manoir du Carra
France - Burgundy - Beaujolais Villages AOC   

Carra Beaujolais-Villages Gamay Noir Non filtré is a new project for 2025. We wanted a very fruity style of Beaujolais Villages using a good amount of carbonic maceration during the vinification. 

The wine has a very nice ruby red color and a very pure and delicate nose of pure strawberries and cream that is very defined and seductive. The palate is medium-bodied with crisp tannins, lively red cherry fruit and pleasing weight on the finish.

Excellent with charcuterie (garlic sausage, dry sausage, boudin noir), but also delicious with Coq au vin (Chicken cooked in a red wine sauce). The wine will also goes well with fresh fruit and a splash of Crémant de Bourgogne for a Burgundian Sangria.
