Since 1865, the spirit of Mommessin has consisted of a Beaujolais soul and a Burgundian heart that define a style that is fruity, powerful and very close to its roots.

The Mommessin spirit stands out for the alliance of two winegrowing regions - Burgundy and the Beaujolais, two cultures that make our wines distinctive and appealing.

Beaujolais A.O.C wines are mainly produced in the south of Villefranche-sur-Saône. The vineyard spreads over 9 700 hectares.

Our vinicultarist, Florent Georger specially selects quality grapes from vines from specific terroir of calcareous clay and granitic schist soils to create this Supérieur level Beaujolais.

The grapes come primarily from the villages of Theizé – Saint-Julien – Saint-Étienne-des-Oullières.

Hand-harvested. The vinification combines the traditional Beaujolais semi-carbonic method with thermovinification, with 6 to 8 days of maceration to ensure good extraction, and temperatures maintained at 22–25°C in order to protect and preserve the full fruit expression of the Gamay grape variety. Aged in tank.

The winter of 2023-2024 was the 3rd warmest since 1900, with a particularly mild February. Spring was marked by heavy rainfall, with a notable lack of sunshine. Despite these conditions, temperatures remained above normal. Summer alternated between hot and cool spells, with hot spells in July. These climatic variations complicated plant health management in the vineyards, but winegrowers were able to keep the situation under control.

Yields for the 2024 harvest are expected to be low and very heterogeneous, with some plots suffering from coulure and millerandage. The first pruning began in early September. Harvesting was spread over three weeks, finishing at the end of September in the latest-ripening areas.

The reds have notes of raspberry, black cherry, pear and floral scents such as lily of the valley. Initial tastings reveal fruity, elegant, supple wines with a ruby colour. The range of aromas is broad, giving an impression of deliciousness on the palate, with a lovely freshness and pleasant complexity.
