Description: Fourth-generation vigneron, Jean-Paul Dubost produces wines that combine lusciousness of fruit, mineral rigor, and open-armed friendliness in a way only great Beaujolais can. Jean-Paul assumed control of his family’s holdings in the mid-1990s, gradually steering viticulture toward organic practices. Jean-Paul’s wines articulate stark clarity with each parcel and Cru vineyards (the broad generosity of Morgon, the stony snap of Brouilly, and the lurking spicy power of Moulin-a-Vent). The subtle differences he employs in the vinification and elevage of each wine serves only to enhance the transmission of terroir.
Food pairing: Bacon, charcuterie, cheese (mild, soft, goat, cheddar), coq au vin, fish w/ red wine sauce, ham, turkey, roast pork, tuna, light fare, etc.
