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 has 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. The name nods to the ancient Gauls who stored whole-cluster grapes in stone vats before fermentation - the ancestor of carbonic maceration. Chill it down and drink it.
