Anne-Sophie Dubois makes some of the most Burgundian Gamay we've come across, and Les Labourons is where she shows her whole hand. It's her flagship parcel, a steep, high-elevation site of decomposed pink granite in the windswept hills above Fleurie, farmed organically. Raised in Champagne and trained in Volnay, she rejects the region's usual whole-cluster, semi-carbonic playbook in favor of fully destemmed fruit and a traditional Burgundian fermentation, which gives her wines more structure and definition than typical cru Beaujolais. The result is delicate but not fragile, serious but still vibrant. Serve it with a light chill.

Flatiron's Take

From the Importer

What has to say about this wine:

Tasting Notes & Food Pairings

Perfect Pairings

Roast chicken, lentils with sausage, charcuterie, or herb-driven vegetarian dishes. The mineral tension and fine tannin also handle grilled salmon and mushroom tarts.

Tasting Profile

Aromas of raspberry and violet with crushed-stone and light spice notes. Medium-bodied and silky, with bright acidity and fine, structured tannins, closing on a stony, mineral finish.

Anne-Sophie Dubois is a Beaujolais star. She makes some of the most Burgundian Gamay we’ve ever tried, age-worthy Fleuries that ooze the confidence and style of those great Pinot Noirs. The crazy thing is, she’s only been making wine for about 6 or 7 years, and she’s already a master of her craft. She draws her own beautiful wine labels, too.

Anne Sophie grew up in Champagne and cut her winemaking teeth in Volnay. Those early experiences as well as her fondness for the wines of the revered Henri Jayer greatly influenced her approach to winemaking. Most Cru Beaujolais traditionally utilizes whole clusters and semi-carbonic fermentation, a method that endows the wines with tell-tale fruity and bouncy qualities. Although we adore the wines of Foillard, Lapierre, and Métras, there's something about Dubois that grasps you in a very different way.

Her approach of de-stemmed Gamay and traditional Burgundian fermentation provide more structure and definition than the norm. While her wines retain a fresh and bostrious fruit profile, they are uncommonly structured and focused. It’s a style we absolutely adore.

The wines are reminiscent of Gevrey -Chambertin; intense yet supremely elegant, abounding in blackberry, lavender, and strawberry flavors with velvet ribbon-like texture and fine-point tannins. Add that to the unique, granitic mineral profile of Fleurie. What more can be asked of Gamay.

Along with these more “serious” Anne-Sophie employs the traditional whole cluster fermentation of her adopted to make a couple of cuvees that are distilled joy.
