A WINE AS POWERFUL AS JULIUS CAESAR<\/strong><\/h2>\n\n\n\n

Juli\u00e9nas wines<\/strong> are so called in honour of Julius Caesar who occupied the region in 100 BC. His troops may have already been growing vines back then…<\/p>\n\n\n\n

But the allusion to Julius Caesar isn\u2019t just in the appellation. The granite terroir, rich in alluvial deposits, also gives these Beaujolais wines unique character \u2013 character not entirely unlike that of the invincible general, who would surely appreciate the subtle mix of fruit and spice that emanate from Juli\u00e9nas wines.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

There is no shortage of adjectives to describe this outstanding Beaujolais cru: vigorous, robust, structured, seductive and elegant. Characteristics that are also used to describe Julius Caesar<\/strong>. A wine so like him it\u2019s borderline audacious!<\/p>\n\n\n\n

And that\u2019s not all…<\/p>\n\n\n\n

A WINE AS COURAGEOUS AS A LEGIONARY<\/strong><\/h2>\n\n\n\n

Juli\u00e9nas wines<\/strong> grow at heights of 250 to 470 meters in altitude on a slope that gets steeper and steeper. The vines are planted in poor soil and need all their strength and courage to grow properly and find the resources they need.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

The gamay noir \u00e0 jus blanc<\/strong> variety is perfectly up to the task and guarantees high-quality production.   The courage of the vines is reflected in the complex bouquet of Juli\u00e9nas: the floral, fruity, spicy aromas and mineral notes make for a harmonious blend.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

A WINE AS WELCOMING AS THE GAULS<\/strong><\/h2>\n\n\n\n

Juli\u00e9nas<\/strong> is not known only for its excellent wines. It is also a charming village of about 800 inhabitants, a lively tourist haven that extends a warm welcome to travellers who come to discover the Beaujolais crus<\/strong> as well as anyone seeking to live in the village year round.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

This small town is packed with places to visit such as the Old Church, the Caveau, the Bois de la Salle chateau, Juli\u00e9nas chateau and the Maison de la D\u00eeme. Of course, there are also many wineries ready to help you discover the flavours of a Juli\u00e9nas<\/strong> wine.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

And if you decide to visit the Beaujolais<\/strong> region in summer, don\u2019t miss the ‘Nuits du Vin’ in late June: a friendly 2-day festival with wine tastings in the village centre!<\/p>\n\n\n\n

A visit to Juli\u00e9nas<\/strong> is a must on a trip to the Beaujolais vineyards<\/strong>. The village is a great place for rest and relaxation as well as an extraordinary journey into a showcase of nature. The village’s rustic style and its old-fashioned charm offer something akin to an imaginary journey back in time…<\/p>\n","protected":false},"featured_media":608,"template":"","thematique":[],"class_list":["post-1683","appellation","type-appellation","status-publish","has-post-thumbnail","hentry"],"acf":[],"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.beaujolais.com\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/appellation\/1683","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.beaujolais.com\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/appellation"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.beaujolais.com\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/appellation"}],"wp:featuredmedia":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.beaujolais.com\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media\/608"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.beaujolais.com\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=1683"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"thematique","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.beaujolais.com\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/thematique?post=1683"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
