Domaine des Billards Saint Amour 2010 $16.99 on sale - Dark and deep and lovely, with crushed black cherry and spice, moderate tannins, solid and mouthfilling, this is always one of my favorite Cru Beaujolais every year! David Bowler, Importer of this terrific winery (he is related by marriage to the owners) provides the following background: "In 1821 the This is seriously old-school winemaking: after hand-harvesting, the grapes undergo semi-carbonic maceration in vats using only indigenous yeasts. The wines are then aged half in cement tanks and half in large old wooden foudres with a light fining before bottling. Although delicious when young, the wines are incredibly age-worthy. A recent tasting of wines ranging back into the mid-1970’s showed great intensity and complexity without any sign of fatigue. The Beaujolais region is finally getting the recognition it deserves and the Barbets are a perfect example of why; these are impressive wines with surprising complexity and elegance. They would not be out of place in any collector’s cellar nor on the table with your next meal. Luckily, good Beaujolais is still one of the great values in French wine."
