The red Beaujolais Village Les Vins de Vicky, produced by Château des Moriers, is the fruit of the territory's tradition. The origins of the domaine date back to the end of the 19th century, and it still continues to offer wines that faithfully interpret the oldest local customs. On the 9-hectare estate, divided between Fleurie and Moulin-à-Vent, the vines are managed according to organic farming principles. For centuries, Gamay has acclimatised to the region's mild climate and poor, draining soils generated by the gradual deepening of pink granite rocks. In accordance with the region's tradition, once the harvest is complete, the healthiest and ripest grapes are vinified whole using a carbonic maceration process that preserves the expressive integrity of the fruity aromas. Before bottling, the wine is aged for several months in stainless steel tanks.

The Beaujolais Village Les Vins de Vicky from Château des Moriers is a red wine to be enjoyed young to appreciate the crispness of the fruit.
