3rd<\/sup> weekend of June \u2013 Welcome to Beaujonomie<\/strong><\/h2>\n\n\n\n
\"\"<\/figure>\n\n\n\n

For a whole weekend of festivities, the Bienvenue en Beaujonomie<\/em> festival, organised by Inter Beaujolais, invites enthusiasts and connoisseurs of wine and gastronomy to (re)discover Expressive and Exceptional Beaujolais wines, available in red, white and ros\u00e9. The concept: at the wine estate or winery of your choice, spend time together at the same table, sharing a chic, laid-back bistronomic meal. There will be warm and friendly opportunities to meet new people, hear great stories, taste delicious wines and cuisine, and learn more about the vineyards. The estates and wineries all design their own programme by inviting a chef into the kitchen (or by whipping up the meal themselves if they\u2019re true gourmet cooks) and planning activities that\u2019ll give you a glimpse of daily life on the estate. Bienvenue en Beaujonomie <\/em>also means lots of side events in the heart of the Beaujolais appellations over the whole weekend. www.bienvenue-en-beaujonomie.fr<\/p>\n\n\n\n

From the most intimate wine cellars to the most stunning ch\u00e2teaux, these tours set out to visit Beaujolais wine estates and trading houses so you can (re)discover their wines. During exclusive tours of their estates, winemakers and connoisseurs share their passion for this unique terroir and invite you to awaken your inner winemaker. There is also a guided wine tasting, accompanied by a m\u00e2chon beaujolais<\/em>, a genuine Lyonnais gastronomical tradition.

On the agenda: old-fashioned pressing, sausage cooked au gene<\/em> (in grape pomace), a country-style meal and a chance to get a taste of \u2018paradis\u2019 as well as some lovely Beaujolais vintages. www.feteduparadis.com<\/a><\/p>\n\n\n\n
