The everyday glouglou bottle from one of Beaujolais' founding natural producers. Marcel Lapierre was one of the original Gang of Four who, alongside Foillard, Thevenet, and Breton, championed low-intervention winemaking in the region back in the 1980s. Since Marcel's passing in 2010, son Mathieu and daughter Camille have carried the work forward. Raisins Gaulois is young-vine Gamay declassified from the family's Morgon parcels - the yields run higher than Morgon allows, so the wine is bottled as Vin de France. Semi-carbonic, no added sulfur, unfiltered, and just 12% alcohol. The name means "Gallic grapes," a nod to the label's cheerful ancient Gaul and to a wine built for unfussy drinking. Chill it down and drink it.

"The 2025 Raisins Gaulois comes from the youngest vines, which produce a lot of fruit. Pale red in colour. Red cherries and a touch of Clementine burst on the simple but attractive nose. The palate is nicely balanced, with pliant tannins, open-knit and generous, with an easy-going, tealeaf-tinged finish. Just add barbecue." —Neal Martin

More about Marcel Lapierre

Marcel Lapierre is the father of natural wine, and his domaine remains the blueprint. Organic vineyards, wild yeasts, no sulfur, biodynamic methods since 1981—these weren't fashionable choices then. Now his son and daughter carry on the legacy with 18 hectares of exemplary Beaujolais.

Tasting Profile

Bright, juicy, and low-alcohol with crunchy red cherry, raspberry, and a peppery lift. Light-bodied, refreshing, made to be chugged.
