About the grape variety:
Gamay is the emblematic grape of Beaujolais. It thrives in granite-rich soils, producing wines that are intensely fruity yet elegant, with soft tannins and lively acidity.

Trivia:
The name Brouilly comes from Mont Brouilly, the volcanic hill that dominates the landscape of the appellation. According to legend, Saint Martin once blessed the hill, protecting the vineyards from evil spirits—a story still remembered in the region today."
