Chateau de Pizay Regnie
The Chateau Pizay Regnie is an example of one of those rare reds that is best served chilled and represents yet another delicious gamay from this quite excellent estate.
Find aromas of ripe fruits like blackberry, redcurrant and raspberry on the nose that tempt you into the fruity and supple palate. Serve at 16C or pop it in the fridge for 20 minutes. Great with grilled white meats and soft cheeses.
Lifted red fruit aromas cede to voluptuous cherry and plum fruit on the palate, with a pretty floral edge and bright acidity - easy to appreciate now, but with the weight to improve. Drink 2017-2021, 90pts, Decanter Cru Beaujolais Panel Tasting Sept 2017 (2015 vintage)
Chateau de Pizay
Since the Middle Ages the fine wines of the Château de Pizay have been appreciated by Beaujolais-lovers. Noble descendants of the aristocracy of selected Crus and vinified with every respect given to tradition, these wines are tasted all over the world. The layout of the site reminds one of a Roman villa and, indeed, there is an Roman road passing by. In 1030 the name Pizay was mentioned for the first time in the charters of the Abbey de Cluny. In 1070, a surrounding wall was erected by the Lords of Pizay followed by a robust keep built in the 14th century. A garden in the french style was added in the 18th century, completing the exquisite charm of the estate.
The Château includes a four-star hotel with 64 rooms and a gourmet restaurant. This is an ideal place to discover the charming pleasure of the Pays Beaujolais.
