What is this wine?
Olivier Minot farms organically in Beaujolais, crafting playful but carefully made natural wines. La Boutanche is his Gamay bottled under the popular “La Boutanche” label—a collaboration project with Selection Massale featuring whimsical illustrated labels that change by producer. The 2024 vintage is made in a juicy, low-sulfur, glou-glou style for maximum drinkability.
